Hirchak's Creamy Sugar Cookies

Cream together:
3 cubes of margarine
5 oz. cream cheese (not light)
1 1/2 cups of sugar
1 1/2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Add:
4 cups of flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

Drop on a cookie sheet.  I use a cookie scoop.
Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.
Remove from oven and flatten with a spatula.
Let sit on cookie sheet for a couple minutes before removing.
Frost when completely cooled.

Cream Cheese Frosting

8 oz. package of cream cheese (not light)
1 cube of margarine
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups of powdered sugar
food coloring of your choice
Sprinkle lightly with clear sugar the color of frosting.

Enjoy.  These will keep for a couple weeks in the fridge and taste great.  If you need to make a lot ahead of time, make the cookies, bake them and freeze them.  Frost for the event.
