Ingredinets:
- For the Dough:
- 8 oz. (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened (I recommend regular, not low fat).
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp light brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour (plus extra for rolling out dough)
- For the Filling:
- 3/4 cup finely ground walnuts
- 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 3/4 tsp cinnmon
- For the Topping:
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 egg, lightly beaten, + 1 tsp water
- To Make Dough:
- In large mixer bowl, combine butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, brown sugar and salt on medium speed until completely combined (about 1 minute).
- Scrape down sides of mixing bowl, add vanilla and combine.
- Mix in flour in four batches, on low speed, until combined.
- With floured hands, shape dough into 6-inch square, wrap in plastic, and chill in refrigerator, at least one hour.
- To Make Filling:
- With a fork, mix finely chopped walnuts, dark brown sugar, and cinnamon together until combined. If sugar sticks together, use fingers to separate.
