Instructions
Instructions
Set your pressure cooker to work but still get the oven ready at 350°F for your cookie sheet.
Whisk your flour, salt, and baking powder. This helps spread the rising agent good all through the dough.
Beat together butter and cream cheese until creamy.
Slowly add sugar and keep beating until fluffy.
Add the egg and extracts and mix it just so everything sticks together.
Fold in dry mix gently but completely. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls and roll each in the sugary sparkle.
Press your dough balls spaced 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12 to 15 mins. Let 'em cool on the sheet before swapping to wire rack.
Notes
These cookies are a delicious treat and perfect addition to the Easter table. Smart storage options include airtight containers for maintaining texture.
