I can never resist trying a new cookie recipe, but today’s treat was an absolutely no-brainer, must-try treat for me. Cinnamon Cream Cheese Cookies. Two of my favorite ingredients in one cute little cookie.

½ cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
4 oz cream cheese (½ block), room temperature
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 egg
1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cup flour

How To Make Cinnamon Cream Cheese Cookies.
In a large bowl, combine butter and cream cheese and beat until light and smooth. Mix in powdered sugar until fully combined.
Add in egg and vanilla and mix until smooth.
In a small bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet.
Cover bowl and chill dough in the fridge for a minimum of 60 minutes.
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Sift together sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Scoop and roll dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter and then roll all sides in cinnamon mixture.
Arrange on baking sheet a couple inches apart (as they will spread).
Bake for 8-10 minutes.
