Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cookies Recipe
Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cookies blend the softness of cheesecake with classic chocolate chip cookies. Cream cheese makes them extra tender, while powdered sugar adds a delicate sweetness.
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cups powdered sugar
- 5-6 tbsp mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder in a bowl. Set aside.
- Beat the softened butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
- Add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Gradually beat in powdered sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Fold in the dry ingredients, then stir in the mini chocolate chips. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the chilled dough into 24-26 balls, placing them 1.5 inches apart on the baking sheets. Lightly flatten each one.
- Sprinkle a few more mini chocolate chips on top for extra indulgence.
- Bake for 10 minutes until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should look slightly underbaked for a soft texture.
