Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cream Tart Cake Number.
Step 1
To start your delightful cookie creation, grab a large mixing bowl and cream together the softened butter and white sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, creating a perfect base for your cookies.
Step 2
Next, gently add in the slightly beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and cream cheese flavoring, mixing just until everything is combined—no need to overdo it! Now, it’s time to bring in the dry ingredients.
Step 3
Gradually stir in the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon until a lovely dough forms.
Step 4
Once your dough is ready, cover it with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, or overnight if you want to take your time and enhance the flavors.
Step 5
When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Roll out the chilled dough on the prepared baking sheets to about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 7
Place your stencils on top and carefully cut around the edges with a sharp knife, removing any excess dough to reveal your shapes.
Step 8
Don’t forget to re-roll the scraps and repeat the process for the second letter or number on the second baking sheet.
Step 9
Pop those cookies into the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 10
Once baked, let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack, which should take about an hour—this is the perfect time to sip on a cup of tea or coffee! While the cookies cool, let’s whip up some delicious frosting.
Step 11
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and cream on medium speed until the mixture thickens beautifully.
Step 12
Add in the cream cheese flavoring and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until you achieve stiff peaks—this frosting is going to be heavenly! Now, fit a piping bag with a large round or star tip and fill it with your luscious frosting.
Step 13
To assemble your cookie tart, place the first cookie on a serving tray or large board.
Step 14
Pipe rows of frosting to generously cover the top of the cookie, then gently place the second cookie on top and repeat the frosting pattern.
Step 15
Finally, let your creativity shine as you decorate the cookie tart with fresh raspberries, strawberries, pretzels, and faux flowers as desired.
Step 16
Enjoy the process and the delightful results of your baking adventure!.
