Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Cream the softened butter in an electric mixer. Add egg, liquid sweetener, and extracts. Stir in almond flour and granulated sugar substitute, if you used that. Using a tablespoon, spoon the dough onto a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicon liner. Bake for 5 minutes, and if cookies aren't flattened enough already, flatten them with a fork. Return to oven and bake 18 more minutes. Cookies will not brown, but will be set.
