Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and cream cheese well. The mixture should be thick but smooth. Add hot chocolate mix, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
Add in salt and mix for a moment. Add in flour in half cup increments and mix until incorporated. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
Use a medium cookie scoop (1.5 Tbsp.) to portion dough and place 2 inches apart on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake at 350-f for 14 minutes.
Let the cookies cool for 2 minutes before rolling in powdered sugar. Let them cool completely on a wire rack. If you want a brighter coating, you can roll them a second time in powdered sugar after they are fully cooled. I thought these tasted better the next day, so if possible, make them the day before.
