      Set over to 350F.  (Ungreased cookie sheets) In mixing bowl, beat the
   butter with cream cheese until well blended.
    Beat in the sugar and vanilla, then stir in the flour until well mixed.
   Using a 1/2-tablespoon measure, shape the mixture into small balls and
   place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Make a small indentation
   in the top of each cookie with your thumb. Carefully place a strawberry
   half, cut side down, in each indentation. Bake for 12 to 18 minutes, or
   until very lightly browned. Cool on racks.
