Roll the scooped dough into uniform balls and then roll them in the remaining \u00bc cup of powdered sugar until coated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bake<\/strong>: Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between them. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges of the cookies just start to brown.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cool and Serve<\/strong>: Let the butter cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"4-photo collage of the cookie dough being mixed together and shaped into balls.\" class=\"wp-image-246535\" title=\"Rich, chewy, and topped with a dusting of powdered sugar, these gooey butter cookies are every cookie lover\u2019s dream!

Set the cream cheese, butter, and egg on the counter for at least an hour before you begin baking. This will allow the ingredients to incorporate better, without leaving little chunks unincorporated in the dough. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Add More Sugar as Needed<\/strong>: If \u00bc cup of powdered sugar isn\u2019t enough to roll all the cookies, use additional sugar as needed. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid Overbaking<\/strong>: Don\u2019t overbake your butter cookies! Bake them until the edges and tops just barely begin browning. They will finish baking as they cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter Cake Mix<\/strong>: Yellow Butter Cake will give you the best flavor, but regular yellow cake mix will work quite well if that is what you have on hand or what you can find at the store. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"Top-down view of gooey butter cookies on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.\" class=\"wp-image-246530\" title=\"Rich, chewy, and topped with a dusting of powdered sugar, these gooey butter cookies are every cookie lover\u2019s dream!
