As a busy mom of three, I'm always looking for easy and delicious recipes that I can make for my family. These cream cheese cookies are one of my favorites because they're so simple to make and they always turn out perfectly.
The best part about these cookies is that they're incredibly versatile. You can add your favorite fruit preserves or candy to the center, or you can even leave them plain. I also like to add a little bit of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough for extra flavor. No matter how you make them, these cookies are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
Step-by-step
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in flour until well blended. Drop dough by spoonfuls or use a cookie press to place onto prepared cookie sheets. If using floral cookie press design, make an indentation in the center with a thimble, fill with preserves, or press candy into center.
- Bake for 15 minutes in preheated oven. Cookies should be pale.
