Best Cut Outs Ever

I got this recipe from one of my favorite people in the world, Taryn. I remember the first time I met her--we had dinner in the back of a bowling alley (or some sketchy building). I knew instantly that we would be friends. Who knew she could also bake up a mean cut out cookie?! This is a good time to whip up some cute little heart cut outs for Valentine's Day.

Taryn's Velvet Cutouts

1 cup butter
3 ounces cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour

Cream together butter, cream cheese and sugar. Add egg and vanilla and beat well. Stir in flour. Chill 1-2 hours. Roll about 1/4 inch, then cut into shapes. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
