Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz.) package Hiland Dairy Cream Cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 cup Hiland Dairy Butter, room temperature
- 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Powdered sugar, for dusting cookies
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the Hiland Dairy Cream Cheese and Butter on medium high speed for a couple minutes.
- Add the sugar and mix again for another minute. Scrape the sides of the bowl down and then add the eggs and vanilla. Mix again until just combined.
- In a separate medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add a bit of the flour mix into the cream cheese mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Continue until flour is all mixed in. Careful not to over mix.
- Roll about 1-2 Tablespoons of dough into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place balls about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12-16 minutes or until the tops of the cookies just start to get golden brown.
- Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for a couple minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. Sprinkle the cookies with powdered sugar then enjoy!
