Cream cheese cookies - cream cheese

Method

• In large bowl, combine all ingredients except flour and mix til Smooth.
• Stir in flour until combined and blended.
• Chill dough for at least 8 hrs or over night.
• In the picture below is what it looks like the next day.
• Preheat oven to 375F.
• On a lightly floured surface (i use confectioner sugar instead of flour) roll out dough 1\3rd piece at a time cut into to 1/8th thickness and cut into desired shapes.
• Refrigerate the remaining pieces til your ready for each piece.
• Place one inch apart on a cookie sheet covered in parchment.
• I then use a pastry brush to brush off excess powder sugar so it looks more clean.
• Leave cookies plain to ice later or brush with egg whites colored in separate bowls to decorate by painting a design on cookie.
• Also u can brush egg whites on the cookie and sprinkle sprinkles on cookie.
• Bake 7 to 10 minutes or longer to your desired doneness in the preheated oven or until lightly golden brown.
• How long you bake your cookies depend on the thickness of the cookie.
• If it is really thick like the thickness of a big cookie cutter then you will need to go longer than 10 minutes.
• I like a crispy edge moist center so i went longer than 10 minutes.
• I baked 13 minutes.
• After your cookie is done Cool cookies completely before frosting cookies.
• Take a picture and enjoy.
