Lemon Glazed Cream Cheese Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

1

                        roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Sugar Cookie Dough

3

oz cream cheese, softened

1/2

cup all-purpose flour

3

teaspoons grated lemon peel

1 1/2

cups powdered sugar

2

to 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Preparation

Heat oven to 350°F. Let dough stand at room temperature 10 minutes to soften. Line large cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper.

In large bowl, break up cookie dough. Add cream cheese, flour and 2 teaspoons of the lemon peel; stir with spoon or hands until well blended. (DO NOT EAT RAW COOKIE DOUGH AFTER COMBINING WITH FLOUR.) Shape dough into 36 (1-inch) balls. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, stir powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Frost cookies; sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel. Store in airtight container.
