Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup (227 g) salted butter
  • 1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla this is a good time to use vanilla paste
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) almond extract
  • 2¾ cups (380 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt
  • 4 ounces (113.4 g) cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch of salt
  • 1¾ cup (210 g) powdered sugar
  • fresh fruit for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Place the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg, egg yolk, vanilla and almond extract and mix on low until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  • Slowly mix in baking soda, salt and flour.
  • Scoop the dough into large balls, I like to use a ¼ cup cookie scoop for these.
  • Place 6-7 cookie dough balls on your lined baking sheet. Bake the cookies for 11-14 minutes. You're looking for a nice light golden brown around the edges, and some crackling along the top. Be careful not to over bake, or you will lose the chewy factor we are going for.
  • Beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add in the vanilla, pinch of salt and powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Top each cookie with a layer of frosting.
  • Dice up any fruit into very small pieces and place on top of the cookies.

Notes

The butter and eggs should not be completely chilled from the fridge, but should also not be room temperature. I try to let them sit out for about 15-30 minutes before I begin my cookie making!
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don't have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
