Delightful strawberry cheesecake cookies that perfectly blend the flavors of a classic cheesecake with the texture of soft cookies, making them a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1 cup strawberry puree

1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mix to the wet ingredients, blending until just combined.
Fold in the softened cream cheese and strawberry puree until evenly incorporated.
Stir in the white chocolate chips.
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Serve with fresh strawberries or a drizzle of glaze for added sweetness. Avoid overmixing the dough to ensure tenderness.
