I’ll admit, I’m not crazy about cheesecake. I like it but it’s not my favorite dessert. But these cookies I am crazy about! They are so easy and so good. I made these for my house party last week and they were gone by the time everyone left. They were an obvious hit.
A few months ago I found an amazing coupon deal where I ended up getting 20 packages of cream cheese for free! On the website telling me about the deal it had a link to a blog suggesting different recipes in which used cream cheese. This was one of them. And funny enough, I ended up using cream cheese #20 on these.
