Ingredients
Powdered Sugar, 2 cup, unsifted *Flour, white, 4 cup Baking Powder, .5 tsp Vanilla Extract, .5 tsp Salt, .5 tsp Butter, salted, 2 sticks, softenedlow fat cream cheese, 1 (8oz) pkg, softened
sift flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl, set aside. In a mixing bowl, put butter and cream cheese. Blend till soft and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mix well. add vanilla, blend. Add flour in two parts, mix till dough forms a ball and comes away from the sides.
Take dough out of the bowl, divide into two parts. Flatten down to an inch, wrap in wax paper, and stick in fridge for 30 minutes to chill thoroughly.
Preheat oven to 350. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment, or spray it really good with no stick spray. After chilling the dough, roll it out to 1/4 to 1/2" thickness, and cut with small cookie cutter. I use something that isn't bigger than 1". Each flattened piece should make about 36 cookies for a total of about 75. Bake in the oven for 7 - 10 minutes, or until bottom edges are slightly golden. Cool on a wire rack. For an even more rich taste, dip one side in melted semi-sweet chocolate chips. Yum!!
