Okay, not technically a cookie, but a yummy holiday treat, no? This recipe was easy and I'm sure quite tasty, but I wouldn't know. "Why?" you ask. I hate cream cheese (weird, right?). The stuff makes me gag if I try to eat it (same reaction I have with mashed potatoes, but that's a whole other story) and, while I was beating the cream cheese for these truffles, the smell alone made me queasy. BUT, if you are normal, I am sure you will love these!
