• porções: 36 servings
• tempo ativo: 15 minutes
• tempo total: 56 minutes

Ingredientes

½ cup unsalted butter (softened)

8 oz brick-style cream cheese (softened)

2 large eggs (room temperature preferred)

1 ½ Tablespoons vanilla extract (this is equivalent to 4 ½ teaspoons of vanilla extract)

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 ½ cups granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

Powdered sugar (for rolling cookies)

Instruções

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together butter and cream cheese until smooth and well-combined.

Stir in eggs and vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

With electric mixer on low-speed, gradually stir dry ingredients into butter/cream cheese mixture until completely combined.

Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place powdered sugar in a shallow bowl and set aside.

Once dough has chilled, scoop by 1 ½ Tablespoon-sized ball and roll between your palms until smooth. Roll through powdered sugar until completely coated and then place on prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies at least 2” apart.

Bake on 350F (175C) in center rack for 10-12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool completely on baking sheet before enjoying.
