Ingredients
  

  • 1 package cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup granulated sugar for coating
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon for coating

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gradually add in the flour and any additional spices. Mix until you have a soft, uniform dough.
  3. Scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  5. Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until they just start to turn golden around the edges.

Notes

  • Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing.
  • Don't overmix; mix just until everything is incorporated.
  • If the dough feels too soft, chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Keep an eye on the baking time; remove when barely golden.
  • Experiment with spices like nutmeg for extra flavor.
