Provided by MJH

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint leaves
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 ounces Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons good quality bourbon
1/4 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Using wire whisk, stir together the flour, cornstarch, powdered sugar, mint and salt in large bowl; set aside. In mixer on medium speed, add cream cheese, butter, bourbon and vanilla in a large bowl, beating until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture to cream cheese mixture and beat until it forms a dough. Dough will be somewhat soft so cover and chill in freezer about 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. On lightly floured surface, roll half of dough at a time to less than 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into rounds using 1 1/2 to 2-inch cookie cutter. Place on baking sheets about 2-inches apart. Bake 8-10 minutes or until just lightly browned on bottom. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool cookies in pan on wire rack. When cool, remove from pans and place on platter, garnishing with extra mint or store cookies until ready to serve.

Not sure where I found this recipe. Probably on the back of a peanut butter jar... Very easy to make and they come out really nice. In my opinion, the peanut butter taste is more subtle (and the cookies are a bit sweeter) than a regular peanut butter cookie.
