Cream Cheese Cookies

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Using a stand or hand mixer, mix together the sugar cookie mix, cream cheese, egg, chocolate chips and sour cream in a large mixing bowl on low until completely combined, about 3-4 minutes

Step 3

You should have a firm, slightly sticky dough. It may look slightly crumbly, but will stick together when rolled into a ball.

Step 4

Use a 1 ½ Tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop out cookies and roll them gently between your hands.

Step 5

Place each cookie ball on the prepared baking sheets and flatten them on top just slightly.

Step 6

Bake the cookies, one baking sheet at a time, for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set in the middle. They should not brown except perhaps just slightly on the edges.

Step 7

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve at room temperature or chilled.
