Recipe Introduction
These make cute little cookies that are fun for parties, showers, etc.
List of Ingredients
2 sticks of butter
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
Additional sugar (for surface of cookie)
Filling:
8 oz cream cheese
1 stick butter
1 box powdered sugar
1 tsp. Almond extract
food coloring if desired
Recipe
To make the cookies, mix the butter, cream, sugar and flour. Chill for 1 hour before rolling to a thickness of 1/8" on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 1-1/2" rounds (or very small heart shapes with cookie cutter), and coat both sides with granulated sugar. Place on an ungreased baking sheet and prick each cookie 4-5 times with a fork (much like you would prick a pie crust). Bake at 375 degrees for 7 minutes until slightly puffy. Cool on wire racks.
Blend together ingredients for filling. Put filling between two cookies (making little sandwich cookies). Makes about 5 dozen.
