Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (for coating)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, cream together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup butter until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, mixing well.
