3/4 Cup Butter, Softened
3 oz Cream Cheese
1 Cup Sugar
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract(I like almond)
2 3/4 Cups Flour
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
Assorted Paste Food Coloring
In bowl cream butter, cream cheese, and sugar until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla-beat until smooth. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture. Stir until soft dough forms. Divide into fourths. Tint each with a different food color. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350. Take a small piece of each color and make a 3/4 inch ball. Shape into a 12 inch long roll and coil to make a 2 3/4 inch round cookie. (as you can tell I just kind of do any size that i come up with-not to particular)
Bake for 8 minutes. Do not over bake.
You can also place sucker stick in each cookie before baking to make cookie suckers.
