Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

Made 6/4/23. Really good! I rolled in coarse sugar but won’t next time-makes them a bit too sweet. Could add coloring to frosting or sprinkles on top. Will make again. Hit with my son who doesn’t really like chocolate. Baked 13 minutes in convection oven at 325. Made bigger cookies than I normally do. Actually used a 1.5 tablespoon and weighed each ball (33g). Rolled into balls and flattened with my hand.

I used smitten kitchen’s method and made the dough in the food processor with cold ingredients (pulse dry ingredients, then add sugar butter and cream cheese pulse again, then add egg and extracts and mix until dough comes together). I scooped the dough immediately but put it in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes while the oven preheated. Turned out well! I didn’t make any frosting but that would definitely take these over the top. I plan to add this to my Christmas cookie list
