Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

These Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies blend two classic desserts. You've got soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies — one of my favorites — and there is the rich flavor of cheesecake stuffed all inside one cookie.

Ingredients
  

Cheesecake Filling

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Mix the ingredients for the cheesecake filling — cream cheese, sugar and vanilla extract — in a small bowl. Set it aside.
  • Place the softened butter and both sugars in a large bowl. Beat them with an electric mixer until light and airy.
  • Add the egg and mix to combine.
  • Stir in vanilla and mix again.
  • Add flour, baking soda and salt. Use a spatula to integrate ingredients. The result will be a dense dough.
  • Incorporate chocolate chips.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Scoop a tablespoon of cookie dough.
  • Use the back of another spoon to make some space to place the cheesecake filling.
  • Spoon in about one teaspoon of cheesecake filling per cookie.
  • Take another tablespoon of cookie dough, flatten it slightly and cover the cheesecake filling.
  • Gently press the edges of the cookies to seal them.
  • Repeat until all dough and cheesecake filling is gone.
  • Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The top will be soft but hardens as it cools.

Notes

If you find the dough too sticky to work with, you can chill it in the refrigerator for one hour before you assemble the stuffed cookies and bake them.
Instead of using a tablespoon or regular spoon to make the cookies, you can always use a melon baller.
