Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter (softened)
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
- 2 Eggs (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 8 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
- 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Cream until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.
- In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth. This will be your delicious cheesecake filling.
- Take a tablespoon of cookie dough, flatten it slightly, place about a teaspoon of cheesecake filling in the center, then fold it over to form a ball. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Place cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
