CREAM CHEESE COOKIES I
These cookies are delicate when made with a press, or hardy when dropped by spoonfuls. I fill centers of press cookies with preserves or a chocolate chip for added variety.

HONEY WALNUT CREAM CHEESE
We came up with this recipe after trying Trader Joe's® honey walnut cream cheese; this was much better since we used the orange blossom honey my mom buys from local farmers' market. She suggest toasting the walnuts. To make a sweeter version, add a tablespoon of granulated sugar while pulsing in the processor. Spread a layer on a slice of your favorite bread and enjoy! Yum!

Steps:
- Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl; set aside. Put butter and cream cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in sugar and vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture, and mix until just combined (do not overmix). Mix in toasted walnuts.
- Transfer dough to a work surface. Divide in half; shape each half into an 8 1/2-inch long log about 2 inches in diameter. Wrap each log in parchment paper; freeze until firm, about 30 minutes or up to 2 weeks.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Unwrap 1 log, and roll in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, coating completely. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Space 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
- Bake cookies, rotating halfway through, until golden around edges, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. Repeat with remaining log and remaining 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
Tips:
- Soften cream cheese properly: Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before creaming it with butter. This will help ensure a smooth and creamy mixture.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use a cookie scoop for consistent size: A cookie scoop will help you create evenly sized cookies that will bake evenly.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: The cookies are done baking when the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack: Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before enjoying.
Conclusion:
Cream cheese walnut drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
