Hello girls :) Since I make my cookies for multiple occasions, I thought you too might want the recipe. You can use any type of cookie cutter you would like! And any icing! I usually buy a tub of icing and melt it down some in the microwave, add some dye and wallah! Glossy icing! :)
3/4 C. Crisco
1 package (8 oz.) Neufchâtel cream cheese (reduced fat)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. almond extract
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
In large bowl, beat Crisco and cream cheese until well combined. Add sugar; beat until fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and almond extract; beat well. In small bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to cream cheese mixture; beat until well mixed. Divide dough in half. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate about 1.5 hours.
Preheat oven to 375. Roll out dough, half at a time, to 1/8 inch thickness on lightly floured surface. Cut out with cookie cutters. Place 2 inches apart on un-greased cookie sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Frost cookies with icing. Enjoy :)
Enjoy!
