White Velvet Cookies
(allrecipes.com)

• 1 cup butter
• 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 egg yolk
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Cream the butter, sugar, cream cheese until light and fluffy.
2. Add egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in flour. Refrigerate overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 350.
4. Roll out, cut in shapes, and place on ungreased pan.
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes. They will look white when done.

Yum. These are addicting, kind of melt-in-your mouth, and not as sweet/fluffy as normal sugar cookies. You can still decorate them with frosting, or eat them plain.
