1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon ground cardamom

Preparation
Cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla and cardamom and mix until incorporated. In a sperate bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until well-blended. Chill dough for 5 minutes. Scoop dough by heaping tablespoon and roll into a ball. Repeat as necessary until dough is all portioned. Place on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving 2-inches between cookies and bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are a pale golden around the edges. Cool and dust with powdered sugar.
