Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, affixed with the paddle attachment, add the butter and cream cheese and beat until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar to the butter mixture and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla and almond extracts into the sugar mixture. Change the speed of the mixer to low and slowly add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch, salt and nutmeg to the sugar mixture, mixing until barely combined.

Remove the bowl from the mixer. Use a standard sized cookie scoop (heaping tablespoon) to scoop cookie dough balls. Roll the balls in a bowl containing the sugar topping.

Place cookies a few inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake in 350-degree oven for 10-minutes. Let cookies set on the cookie sheet for 10-minutes, before moving to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
