Cream Cheese Chocolate ChipI needed a break from oatmeal cookies. Plus I had 1/2 a package of cream cheese in the fridge.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 small package (3 ounces) cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

    • Cream butter, cream cheese, and sugars; beat in egg, orange peel, and vanilla. Sift together the flour and salt; stir into creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350° for about 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned around edges. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
