Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy

Add the vanilla extract, almond extract, and eggs, and mix until well combined

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms

Divide the dough into two equal portions, and shape each portion into a disc

Wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours

Preheat your oven to 375F 190C and line baking sheets with parchment paper

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the chilled dough to about 1/4-inch thickness

Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets

Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining dough

Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden

Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely

Once cooled, you can decorate the cookies with icing or sprinkles if desired

Enjoy your delicious Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies!
