Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Scoop small dollops onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least one hour.
  2. Make the Cookie Dough: Beat together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and an extra splash of vanilla.

  4. Assemble Cookies: Take about two tablespoons of cookie dough, flatten slightly, place a frozen cheesecake filling piece in the center, and cover it with more dough.
  5. Bake: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-14 minutes until edges are golden.
  6. Cool & Enjoy: Let cool on the baking sheet for five minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
