PISTACHIO-CREAM CHEESE COOKIES
I stumbled onto this recipe at the grocery store and had to make them for my daughter (who has a special love for shortbreads and sugar cookies). It's not what I call a 'dunking' cookie but it managed to find a place in my holiday collection this year.

Steps:
- In a large bowl beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed for about 30 seconds. Add powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat until combined, scraping side of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Add peel and as much flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour (if needed).

- Heat oven to 375.
- Cut rolls into about 1/4 inch slices. Place 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until edges are light brown. Transfer to wire racks to cook.
- Makes about 44 cookies.
