Soft, buttery cookies filled with creamy cheesecake and swirled with strawberry jam, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup (70 g) granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup (70 g) brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups (160 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp (30 g) powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp (30 g) strawberry jam
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir in strawberry jam. Chill the filling for at least 30 minutes.
- Make the Cookie Dough: In a mixing bowl, cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Shape the Dough: Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough and flatten it slightly. Add 1 tsp of the cheesecake filling to the center. Wrap the dough around the filling and seal well, forming a ball.
- Chill the Cookie Dough: Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
Chilling the dough is essential to prevent spreading. For extra flavor, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before baking.
