This delectable recipe combines the creamy goodness of cheesecake with the convenience of cookies. The perfect combination of cream cheese, graham cracker crumbs, and white chocolate chips is found in these Cheesecake Cookies.
Ingredients: 1 cup cream cheese, softened. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs. 1/2 cup white chocolate chips.
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, butter, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the graham cracker crumbs and white chocolate chips. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie. Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to gently flatten each cookie slightly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, enjoy these delightful cheesecake cookies!
