  1. These were scrumptious cookies! I used margerine spread instead of butter and Neufchatel cheese instead of cream cheese to lighten it up and it turned out fine. They do taste a lot like cheesecake when they're warm. Great recipe!
     
  2. This is a great cookie, it is not a real sweet one. When it cools it is a real crisp cookie.
