Easter Basket Cream Cheese Cutout Cookie Recipe :)

Cookies:

4 oz. Cream Cheese
1 Egg

2 1/2 cup Flour
1/4 tsp Salt

Cream butter and sugar.  Add cream cheese, eggs, vanilla.  Mix in flour and salt.  Mix well with your hands.  Refrigerate for an hour.  Roll out with flour and use your cookie cutters to cut out your favorite shapes.  If you don't have cookie cutters you can use the top of a glass and make round cookies.  Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8 minutes at 375.
