Laughing Cow Sugar Cookies
These soft and tender Laughing Cow Sugar Cookies are fun to make and taste amazing!
I don't know if you are ready for these laughing cow sugar cookies. This will be the second holiday recipe I shared this week! I hope you're as excited about it as I am! These cookies are so soft and tender. I think we can thank the addition of laughing cow cheese for that.
If you're not ready to start making sugar cookies with laughing cow cheese, I do have Sour Cream Sugar Cookies and Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies too.
I had to make these cookies and photograph them immediately afterward. The hubby is a cookie monster. He walked through the door for lunch and his eyeballs lit up. Since I'm a nice wife, I let him have a couple of the ugly cookies. My poor family! They always either have to wait a day for the dessert or can have the recipe rejects. They must be used to it by now because I never hear any fussing.
Guys. Has anyone else started their Christmas shopping? I have and I always get nervous when I start early. I'll tell you what happens. We end up buying far too much for our only child. I have a horrible memory and tend to forget to write down things and before you know it, we have nearly 20 presents bought for Lucian. It's bad, I know. He used to get tired of opening presents before he got through all of them when he was a toddler.
Also, let's talk about my five-year-old's Christmas list already being pretty pricey. That's also a nice reminder that we only need to buy him a max of 10 presents. He's gone through the toy books/magazines and circled things that he thinks he really wants. The list includes a Bat mobile power wheels, a four wheeler, a ginormous hot wheels ultimate garage and everything you can possibly get that's Star Wars.

These cookies sound absolutely amazing. I would have never imagined putting Laughing Cow in cookies. (Or "Vache Qui Rit" as we called it in French class.) I may need to try these with a gluten-free flour substitution!
