Preparation

Chef’s notes

If using a food processor or stand mixer, you can use cold butter. For a hand mixer, room temperature butter is best.
Cream cheese at room temperature is easier to mix, but can be mashed with a fork if cold.
Adjustments were made to the flour amount for better texture and flexibility.
