Notes
- Take the butter and cream cheese out of the refrigerator an hour or so before you start baking for best results.
- Don't dump all the flour into the mixer at once or you might end up with a big mess. Add it gradually.
- This recipe makes a really thick layer of frosting, which makes the final cookies extra sweet. You can halve the frosting recipe and spread a thinner layer if you prefer less sweetness.
