Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (227 g) salted butter
- 1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) almond extract
- 2¾ cups (380 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt
- 4 ounces (113.4 g) cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- pinch of salt
- 1¾ cup (210 g) powdered sugar
- fresh fruit for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer, cream together the butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, approximately 3 minutes.
- Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and almond extract, mixing on low speed until well combined, about 30 seconds.
- Gradually mix in the baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour until fully incorporated.
- Using a ¼ cup cookie scoop, place large balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each one.
- Bake the cookies for 11-14 minutes until the edges are lightly golden brown and the tops display some crackling, but do not overbake to keep them chewy.
- In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and salted butter together until smooth. Add vanilla, pinch of salt, and powdered sugar, mixing until creamy.
- Spread a layer of frosting on each cooled cookie and top with diced fresh fruit.
Notes
For a colorful presentation, use a variety of fruits like strawberries, blueberries, and kiwi.
Ensure the cookies are completely cooled before adding frosting to prevent melting.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
