I’m a chewy cookie gal.
Don’t give me the crunchy cookie unless it is a accompanied by a 1 gallon glass of ice cold milk to dip it in. 
You know, like oreos…I’m a dunker.
Off subject, but how do you eat cookies like oreos?
Anyway, these cookies are the epitome of chewy cookies. They melt in your mouth!
It’s a good thing that they are so small too…they are decadently rich AND the portion is controlled for you in that you can’t handle another amazing cookie, unless you guzzle your glass of milk….leaving you full!
Perfection for the hips!
These cookies and the recipe was given to me by my lovely neighbor, Mona. They are her favorite cookie and are quickly becoming mine too. 
Thank you Mona!
Mona’s Cream Cheese Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 sticks butter, room temperature
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans
How-To
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Cream the cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla together.
- Add the flour and nuts.
- Drop the dough by the teaspoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake for about 12 minutes, just until the edges are slightly brown. You want the cookies to chewy, not crunchy. Don’t bake too long.
- Cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes before removing.

Definitely making these soon. I can imagine how awesome they are!
These sound amazing! Thanks so much for sharing!
I agree, crunchy cookies are only for dunking! Love these!
I really liked these. Maybe the best cookies for the man cave. Sweet and chewy… and chewy without disappointment like one is not chewy or gets brittle if you keep them on the manifold while the engine is warm. Keeping them in the beer frig is the best way to make them last. Friends don’t know to look there.
Ooh, these sound amazing. There’s a cream cheese cookie recipe out there that uses a cake mix and they’re so insanely yummy, but we don’t have cake mixes here. I’ve go to try these. Thank you!
Love these. Making my second batch, I added mini chocolate chips to them. We will see how they are. They sure don’t need anything else, but I live with a bunch of chocolate lovers
Thanks so much for sharing!
Cream cheese makes just about anything better…I don’t know why I never thought about making cookies with cream cheese, but I will definitely whip up a batch after my next trip to the grocery store!
Oooooh, I might have to make a batch of these REAL soon! I love a good chewy cookie. Shoot, I’ll take a crunchy one too, but ya, you better give me some milk (or coffee) with that!
A colleague at work made the cookies and brought them in yesterday…MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
If you don’t mind…I think that I’m going to try these with some Amerato and almonds…instead of the pecans…
