I forgot to take pictures while making them. It is best to use a cookie press. I got an electric Cuisinart one at JC Penney for $20. They are the best things in the world. They come with a whole bunch of little shapes you can use. I used little flower ones that look like poinsettias.
Target has some manual ones. Macy's does also.
Here is the recipe:
6 ounces of SOFT cream cheese (use Kraft Philly)
1 lb of Land of Lakes margarine SOFT
2 cups of sugar
2 egg yolks
2 teas vanilla
5 cups flour
2 teas salt
Cream the margarine and cream cheese, add sugar and mix well til fluffy, add egg yolks and vanilla, mix well, add salt to flour and mix into the cream cheese mixture.
Fill the cookie gun and GO!
Bake at 375 for approx 10 min.
Don't forget the colored sugar sprinkles, Red and green
This recipe makes about 14 dozen cookies... a little more.
You MUST use Philadelphia cream cheese and Land of Lakes margarine. Otherwise, these cookies will not turn out. No skimping allowed!!!
Enjoy!!!
