Cream Cheese Cut-Out Cookies With Almond Frosting image

A great "sugar" coookie! The cream cheese makes them so soft and wonderful! I've substituted vanilla for the almond extract in the frosting when I didn't have any on hand without any problems.

CREAM CHEESE CUTOUT COOKIES



Cream Cheese Cutout Cookies image

Another one of my favorite cutout recipes. I find this dough to be very easy to work with....especially when cutting out small or intricate shapes. I like to make these cookies thicker than my other cutouts. They're great for decorating and icing, too! Prep time does NOT include time for dough to chill. Makes about 4-5 dozen; depending on size and thickness of your shapes.

I love this recipe because it is so easy to roll out, and the taste is great. This is our favorite Christmas cookie recipe to make, but I also make them for Easter and Halloween. Sometimes I ice them or just sprinkle with colored sugar while they bake. I always double this recipe for us.
