Churro Cookies

By

They’re tender, warm and totally Cinnamony. These Churro Cookies are honestly the best cookie I’ve ever had! All it takes is one bite and you’re hooked. They’re made from Pie Crust, so they’re beyond buttery, totally flaky and filled with sweet Cream Cheese. These have a melt in your mouth quality like nothing else your lips have ever experienced!

Ingredients

  • What you’ll need for approx. 11 Churro Cookies (double for more):

Step 1

In a medium bowl combine the Cream Cheese, Vanilla and 1/4 of the sugar, set aside…;

Unroll both of the Pie Crusts and smear one of them with the Cream Cheese mixture…;

Place the other Crust on top and cut out your cookies. You can use whatever size cookie cutter you like…;

With a fork gently mash down the edges to seal them…;

Bake them on a parchment lined baking sheet at 350 degrees for approx. 12 minutes, or until they’re firm and slightly golden. Feel free to make Churro Twists out of the scraps..YUM!
