Cream Cheese Frosting

8 oz. cream cheese
1/4 c. butter (room temp)
1 tsp vanilla
Add powdered sugar to desired consistency mixing with electric mixer.

Cristine's Sugar Cookies

1 c. butter
1 c. sugar
2 eggs (room temp)
Cream together
Add:
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 c. buttermilk
3 c. flour
Refrigerate at least 3 hours. Roll and cut
**The dough for these is like a really thick cake batter. If it is cold it is easier to manage but it may be tempting to add more flour the warmer it gets. If I am making a lot I will take some dough and leave the bowl in the refrigerator. The more flour you add the tougher the final cookie.
