Ingredients

  • 1 - egg extra large
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 3/4 cup self rising flour
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

How To Make brown sugar tea cookie

  • Step 1
    Heat oven to 325% Line baking sheets with parchment. I used a fresh sheet of parchment for each cooking. Egg and heavy cream needs to be room temperature. Butter and cream cheese need to be softened. I used a whisk and mixed by hand but an electric mixer can also be used.
  • Step 2
    Beat softened butter and cream cheese well. Add room temperature egg and beat well.
  • Step 3
    Add both sugars and beat to a nice creamy mixture. Add self rising flour and room temperature heavy whipping cream alternately, mixing well after each, ending with flour. Add vanilla extract and mix to incorporate.
  • Batter on parchment lined baking sheet for 12 cookies
    Step 4
    I used a 2 Tablespoon scoop to place 12 dollops of the soft creamy mixture onto the parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Golden brown crispy edge on the done cookies
    Step 5
    Bake at 325% pre heated oven for 18 to 22 minutes or until a nice golden brown crispy edge forms around the cookies.
  • Step 6
    Remove from oven and carefully slide the parchment with cookies onto a cooling rack, repeat cooking for next 12 cookies. Let sit on parchment for 3 to 5 minutes, then using a thin metal spatula remove the cookies to the cooling rack to finish cooling completely. Store in air tight container. This recipe made 27 cookies with the size scoop i used. Cooking times can vary by oven and amount of batter in scoop.
