Total Time:42 minutes
Yield:18 cookies 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate, your choice!)
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined. Be careful not to overmix. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough. Flatten it into a disc. Take a spoonful of the chilled cheesecake filling (about 1 tablespoon) and place it in the center of the cookie dough disc. Gently wrap the cookie dough around the cheesecake filling, sealing the edges completely. Make sure there are no cracks or openings. Roll the stuffed cookie into a ball. Place the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
