1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease your cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.

5. Drop tablespoon sized balls of dough onto your prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. I always use a cookie scoop for this step.

6. Bake for 10-11 minutes. Remove pans from oven. Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Allow cookies to cool completely before frosting.

7. For the frosting: Combine cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt in a medium-size bowl. Using a mixer, beat until creamy. Frost cooled cookies. Enjoy!
