Easy Low Sugar Cream Cheese Cut Out Cookies
Author: Laura
Serves: 24-30
- 1 cup melted butter (two sticks)
- 8-ounces softened cream cheese
- ½ cup raw sugar or sucanat
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3½-4 cups flour (I use freshly ground hard white wheat flour)
- Stir together melted butter, softened cream cheese, and sugar.
- Add eggs, baking powder, and vanilla.
- Stir in flour until well combined. (Use a little less or a little more flour as needed.)
- Place dough in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
- Once dough is chilled, roll on a well-floured surface and cut out into desired shapes.
- Bake in a 350° oven for 10-15 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned. (I prefer mine just barely done so that they stay soft!)
- Allow cookies to cool completely before frosting.
