OMG They're So GOOOOD Cheesecake Cookies

Yup. Hard to resist eating all the batter before it even gets in the oven, and the cookies are to die for! If you like cream cheese, you gotta make these! I imagine the pecans could be left out and still turn out ok.

Ingredients

• 2 8 oz pkg cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups softened butter
• 4 cups all purpose flour
• 2 cups chopped pecans
• 4 cups sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla

Directions

1. Cream butter, cream cheese, vanilla, and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Add flour, and once it's mixed in, stir in the chopped pecans.
2. Form dough into 1 inch balls, place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet, then dip the bottom of a glass in water and gently press each cookie until it's about 2 inches in diameter.
3. Bake at 375 for 12 to 13 minutes. Cool 2 to 3 minutes on cookie sheets before removing to cooling rack.

They look nothing like the pics on the original recipe page I used (click here to see), but who cares- they're awesome!
