For best results, ensure your butter and cream cheese are fully softened before creaming them together. This will help create a smooth and creamy dough. If you don't have a cookie press, you can pipe the dough onto the baking sheets using a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Or you can roll the dough into small balls, flatten them slightly with a fork, and bake as directed. Feel free to experiment with different food colorings and extracts to create a variety of flavors and designs. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
