Cream Cheese Cookies

• portions: 24 servings
• temps actif: 30 minutes
• temps total: 1 hour

Ingrédients

2 c. all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1 c. (2 sticks) salted butter, at room temperature

4 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature

3/4 c. granulated sugar

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt; set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and cream cheese on medium speed until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and continue to beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and slowly add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined, about 1 minute. Give it a final stir with a rubber spatula to make sure there are no visible traces of flour.

Using a 1 ½-tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the scoops about 1 inch apart. Bake the cookies 1 pan at a time, rotating the pan halfway through, until just set on top and beginning to lightly brown on the bottom, 10 to 12 minutes.

Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. Dust the cookies with powdered sugar, if you like.
