This is a delicious cookie. Perfect for a ladies luncheon, or as a light dessert for a family get together. These are soft cookies with a slight crunch, and white as snow frosting. I hope you enjoy them.

Steps:
- Cook's Note: I use my Kitchen Aide mixer with dough hook to make the cookie dough.. Preheat oven to 435 degrees. Bake cookies for 7 to 9 minutes. Do NOT overbake. This recipe makes 48 cookies. Store them in an air tight container after they have been chilled and the frosting is set. Put wax paper between the layers of cookies.
- MEDIUM MIXING BOWL: Measure 4 1/2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- LARGE MIXING BOWL: Cream together 1 1/2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of butter (2 sticks) until smooth. Then add the 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 cup sour cream, and 1 egg until smooth.
- Add flour mixture to the creamed mixture a little at a time until the dough is smooth and firm. Refrigerate dough for 15 minutes. Use a scoop to make uniform balls. Place them on an ungreased cookie sheet. I use an air cookie sheet. Press each ball with flat fingers until it is about 3/4 inch high.
- Bake 7 to 9 minutes. It takes 9 minutes in my oven. Cookies are not brown. DON'T OVERCOOK OR BROWN THEM! Let them cool on a rack before frosting.
- FROSTING 1 package cream cheese at room temperature 1 stick butter, room temperature 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 to 4 1/2 cups of powdered sugar Blend cream cheese, butter,powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth or firm enough to frost cookies.
