How To Make cream cheese cookies by rose

Step 1

Beat butter, cream cheese, sugar, salt and vanilla until fluffy. Add egg and milk; mix well. Gradually add flour, stir in walnuts. Drop by teaspoonful onto a lightly greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 325, 20 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool.

Step 2

This cookie doesn't need icing or powdered sugar but if you wish you can dip one end in chocolate or do a drizzle icing. My family loves them just the way they are. They also freeze well.
