Recipe Introduction
I made these cookies for Christmas 2002, and although they were tastey, they seemed on the hard side. I was wondering if anyone else has this recipe and if it should have baking powder or soda in it? Please let me know. Thanks......If you didn't know that there was cream cheese in these cookies, you'd think they were very good, very rich butter cookies.

these can be rolled out: Chill the dough until firm, at least 2 hours, roll the dough 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick, and cut with any shape cookie cutter. Carefully transfer to a baking sheet with spatula.
