Soft Sugar Cookies and Frosting

Cookie:
3-1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
1/2 cup sour cream
Frosting:
8 oz cream cheese
5 tablespoons soft butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
3-1/2 cups powdered sugar

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.  Cream the butter, shortening, and sugar until light. Stir in the egg, extract, sour cream, and dry ingredients.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll 1/4 inch thick. Cut using your desired shape. Place on the baking tray and cook for ten minutes or until the edges are just lightly browning.  Mix all of the ingredients for frosting until you reach your desired consistency, spread on Cookie.
