Heather's Dish
Yields: 12-14
4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
4 Tablespoons butter, room temperature (I used Smart Balance Buttery Blend)
½ cup granulated sugar (I used Splenda)
½ cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
juice and zest from 1 lemon
1 cup flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon poppy seeds
Preheat oven to 350. Cream together the butter and cream cheese. Add the sugars, egg, extract, and lemon juice.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt and add to the wet ingredients. Mix until just incorporated. Add the zest and the poppy seeds, mix until evenly distributed.
Spoon the dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment or a Silpat; bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees. The cookies will not really change color except on the bottom, so be sure to check the bottoms to make sure they’re not burning.
