Creamy goat cheese gives subtle tang to these soft sugar cookies, and prevents them from baking up too sweet. They’re the perfect gift for the holidays!

The enduring softness of these cookies would make them perfect candidates for the cookie swap, and as I’ve proved before, the recipe is ripe for adaptation, most notably stuffing. I think these goat cheese ones, with their ever so slight hint of goaty tang, would be amazing stuffed with some soft caramel or fruit jam.
