Method
- Preheat oven to 375º. In the bowl of your food processor, place flour, baking powder, baking powder and salt. Pulse. Add butter and cream cheese in large chunks. Pulse a couple of times.Pour sugar into a small bowl. Add the caviar from the vanilla bean, vanilla extract and zest. Using your fingers, rub the zest and vanilla into the sugar until evenly distributed. Add flavored sugar to food processor with the flour/butter/cream cheese mixture. Pulse mixture until powdery. Add vanilla and the additional remaining extract. Pulse until dough comes together in a ball. Chill dough briefly for 10-20 minutes or until you can easily roll them into balls, using about 1 ½ tablespoons of the dough. Drop them into a bowl with the sprinkles, coating them evenly.Transfer to parchment lined sheet pans 2" apart. Lightly press with your palm or the bottom of a glass until they are ¼ "-½ " thick. Bake for 9-10 minutes. Check the bottoms for a golden brown color as it is hard to tell if they are done by checking the tops. These crisp up as they cool. Let cool on sheet pan for a few minutes before moving to a rack to cool all the way.
