Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

I was terrified of the idea of facing down our first holiday season gluten- and dairy-free.  Thanks to some very special friends and some very talented cooks, we produced several delicious, never-miss-the-gluten-or-dairy treats to eat and share!

Cream together:

-2 c sugar

-1 1/2 c. butter, soft (sub Earth Balance Soy Free Butter Spread)

-6 oz. cream cheese (sub Daiya cream cheese for dairy free version)

Next Add:

-1 tsp salt

-1 tsp almond extract

-2 tsp vanilla extract

-2 egg yolks

Cut in:

5 c. Jules gluten free flour

Chill dough for at least 2 hours.

Roll and cut your cookies, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Bake at 375 for 7-10 minutes.
