Chocolate Drizzle Cutout Dreams

With a cocoa-laced cookie dough, chocolate cream cheese filling, and chocolate drizzle this cookie is guarantees a perfect presentation and an amazing taste.

You will need:
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon butter flavoring (opt.)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
FILLING:
1/4 cup butter, softened
3 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
2 tablespoons sour cream
DRIZZLE:
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
1-2 tablespoons hot water

Step 1: Chocolate Drizzle Cutout Dreams

Step 1: In the bowl of an electric mixer combine the butter, sugar, and confectioners' sugar on low speed; beat for 1 minute. Increase speed to medium, continue beating for 2 minutes.  (Note- I used raw sugar in this recipe, it has a slightly different color than regular sugar.)

Step 2: Beat in the eggs, vanilla extract, and butter flavoring on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed until mixture is smooth and appears blended. It should be yellow in color.

Step 3: Gradually beat in the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder until a dough is formed.

Step 4: Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until easy to handle.
