These are based on a King Arthur Flour recipe, which I love, but I've slightly adapted them with some whole wheat pastry flour and a couple of minor changes. So good!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup reduced-fat cream cheese
1 cup butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine flours, baking powder and soda, and salt.
3. In another bowl, cream butter, cream cheese, and sugar for 2-3 minutes.
4. Add vanilla and egg to creamed mixture.
5. Add the flour in about 3 batches and mix on low speed until well blended.
6. Make one tablespoon sized cookies on the parchment and bake for about 10 minutes.
