Ingredients
- 3 ounces cream cheese add 4 ounces if you want more cream cheese flavor, softened
- 8 tablespoons butter salted, softened

- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 10-12 Oreo cookies crushed, some larger bits too
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Add flour and baking powder gradually and mix until well combined.
- Add a couple drops of a holiday food coloring for a festive touch if desired.
- Fold in Oreos and whatever add-ins you like.
- Scoop out two or 3 tablespoons and roll into a ball or just use a cookie scoop.
- Place them on your cookie sheet and press down lightly.
