Chill
6
Using rubber spatula, fold together the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Don't over-mix; the dough will be very soft. Cover airtight and chill for at least ⏱️ 1 hour or overnight. Dough must be chilled to bake properly.
7
Preheat the oven to 350F degrees, with rack on lower middle position. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.
8
Roll the dough into 1.5 tablespoon sized balls and place 2 inches apart on lined baking sheet. Slightly flatten the dough balls.
9
Bake the cookies for ⏱️ 9-11 minutes. Cookies may appear soft and under-baked. They will further set upon cooling. If they didn't spread out much, slightly flatten them a bit once out of oven. Allow cookies to cool completely.

Meanwhile, make the cream cheese icing by whisking all frosting ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Spread icing in an even layer over cooled cookies.
