Irresistible Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies (Page 2 ) | August 8, 2025

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat to prevent the cookies from sticking.

Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Use an electric mixer or whisk until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
• Add the eggs one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

Step 3: Mix Dry Ingredients

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this could affect the texture of your cookies.

Step 4: Fold in the White Chocolate Chips

• Once the dough is ready, fold in the white chocolate chips. The sweet chips will add a creamy texture to the cookies once baked.

Step 5: Prepare the Strawberry Cream Cheese Filling

• In a small bowl, mix together the strawberry jam and softened cream cheese until smooth. This mixture will be spooned into the center of each cookie.

Step 6: Shape the Dough

• Scoop about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough and roll it into a ball. Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Press a small indent into the center of each dough ball using your thumb or the back of a spoon.

Step 7: Add the Filling

• Carefully spoon a small amount of the strawberry cream cheese mixture into the indent of each cookie dough ball. This will create a delicious center that’s both sweet and creamy.

Step 8: Bake

• Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the tops have set.
• Once done, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Storage Information:

• These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
• For longer storage, you can freeze the cookies for up to 3 months. Just make sure to place parchment paper between layers of cookies to prevent them from sticking together.
