Cream cheese sugar cookie recipe from Kraft cookbook?

I think it was a Kraft cookbook, might have been Philly cream cheese. These were refridgerator cream cheese cookies with cream cheese, butter,eggs, flour, etc. Roll them out and cut them, taste just like the ones they sell at Wally World. Anyone have a similar cookbook??

This is the recipe I have for cream cheese sugar cookies. I don't know if it is from a Kraft cookbook or not.

1 cup white sugar

1 cup butter, softened

1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 egg yolk

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, butter, cream cheese, salt, almond and vanilla extracts, and egg yolk. Beat until smooth. Stir in flour until well blended. Chill the dough for 8 hours, or overnight.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough 1/3 at a time to 1/8 inch thickness, refrigerating remaining dough until ready to use. Cut into desired shapes with lightly floured cookie cutters. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Leave cookies plain for frosting, or brush with slightly beaten egg white and sprinkle with candy sprinkles or colored sugar.

Bake for 7 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until light and golden brown. Cool cookies completely before frosting.

Sugar Cookie Frosting Ingredients- 4 cups confectioners' sugar 1/2 cup shortening 5 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract food coloring (optional) Preparation- In a large bowl, cream together the confectioners' sugar and shortening until smooth. Gradually mix in the milk and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth and stiff, about 5 minutes. Color with food coloring if desired.
