I'm allergic to cream cheese. Do you think I could substitute another type of cheese, like mascarpone or ricotta?

I'm going to try making these cookies with different extracts next time. I think they would be great with almond or peppermint extract.

I had a hard time getting the dough to come together. I had to add a lot more flour than the recipe called for.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The cream cheese flavor is subtle and the cookies are perfectly sweet.
