Bring eggs, butter, and cream cheese to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Cover a flat cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Sift together the dry ingredients

Cream the butter and cream cheese with the sugar and brown sugar. Beat on medium-high speed for 5 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.

Turn the mixer to medium speed. Add the eggs and vanilla to the batter in three separate parts, allowing each portion to incorporate fully.

Slowly add the dry ingredients and beat until fully incorporated.

Drop 1 T portions of dough onto cookie sheet and bake for 12-13 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the pan. Bonus: Sprinkle with coarse sea salt while warm for an extra punch of flavor!
