Cream Cheese Cookies

List of Ingredients





3 oz. pkg. cream cheese
1 cup shortening, butter or margarine
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 tsp. salt (if you use shortening, otherwise omit)
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2-1/2 cups flour



Recipe



Cream shortening and cream cheese until fluffy. Add sugar, egg and
vanilla. Beat until well mixed. Add dry ingredients. Mix
thoroughly. Roll into balls and flatten with fork tines on ungreased
cookie sheet. Bake at 375 F. for 10 to 12 minutes or until slightly
browned. Makes approximately 4 dozen cookies.

NOTE: This cookie dough works very well in a cookie press or chill
several hours or overnight. It is very easy to roll out and cut into
shapes with your favorite cookie cutters for any of the holidays.
