Pound Cake Cookies

2 cups all purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup butter, softened 

4 ounces cream cheese, softened 

1 cup sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla 

Cream together cream cheese and butter, then add sugar.  Beat 3-4 minutes till fluffy.  Add egg and vanilla.   Mix flour and salt.  Add a little at a time and mix on slow speed.   Line baking sheet with parchment paper.  Drop cookie mix onto baking sheet with cookie scoop.  Leave at least an inch between cookies since they will spread some.  Bake at 350 degrees for 16-18 minutes.  Let cool 5 minutes before transferring onto cooling rack to cool completely. ly.transferreserving.
