Beat the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer until it is smooth. Add the cream cheese, sugar and salt. Beat well, stopping to scrape the sides and the bottom of the bowl. Add the flour and mix until the dough comes together, scraping again. Gather the dough and form into a flattened 4-inch ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour, or freeze up to 2 months.
