Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, I combine the softened butter, sugar, and cream cheese, beating them together until fluffy and well combined. This step is crucial; it creates that lovely creamy texture we want in our cookies! Then, I add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing everything together until smooth. The smell of vanilla infused with buttery goodness will make your mouth water! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
