Notes
- Don't skip chilling the dough. This will allow the flavors to come together. Also, this hardens the dough a little and when placed in the oven they won't go flat. Instead they will puff up and come out pillow-soft.
- Room temp cream cheese, this just makes the job for you and your kitchen appliances easier.
- Allow cookies to cool at least 15 minutes before digging in. The powdered sweetener is optional but a nice little dusting on the top.
