French Goat Cheese Cookies

This is a recipe that I got from friends in France.
It may sound unusual to Americans, but these cookies are delicious.

1/2 pound butter, room temperature
2 C Sugar
3 eggs, room temperature, beaten
1 C Ricotta Cheese
1 C French Goat Cheese
4 C flour
1 TBS salt
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 TBS Vanilla

Icing:
2 C confectioner's sugar, sifted
2 TBS vanilla
2 TBS whole milk

In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment:
Cream together butter and sugar until creamy and smooth
Add:
eggs
ricotta cheese
goat cheese
Blend well

Add:
flour
salt
baking soda
vanilla
Blend well

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a 1 1/2" cookie scoop, drop dough onto the pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.
They will be lightly browned.
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Icing:
In a bowl, mix:
Confectioner's sugar
Vanilla
Milk

Put aside until ready to ice cookies.
Place the rack of cookies on top of a sheet pan and spoon icing over cookies.
Allow to dry before serving.

Enjoy!
