Ingredients

  • 2¾ Cups All-purpose Flour
  • ½ Cup Strawberries, frozen and thawed
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 Cup Butter
  • ¾ Cup Sugar
  • ¼ Cup Brown Sugar

Cookie Cheesecake Filling

  • ¾ Cup Cream Cheese
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ Cup Powdered Sugar

Directions

1. Start by lining a cookie sheet with a silicone mat to prevent the cookies from sticking.

2. In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Freeze this mixture in teaspoons to create the cookie cheesecake filling.

3. In a separate mixing bowl, beat together the vanilla extract, sugar, egg, and egg yolk until fluffy.

4. Mix in the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda until well combined.

5. Gently fold in the small strawberry chunks into the cookie dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

6. Line a baking sheet and scoop 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie, forming balls with a slight press. Freeze the cookie dough balls for at least one hour.

7. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).

8. Place the frozen cookie dough balls onto the lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading.

9. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

10. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Once the cookies are completely cooled, take the frozen cookie cheesecake filling and place a teaspoon-sized portion on the bottom of one cookie. Then, sandwich it with another cookie on top.

12. Repeat this process with the remaining cookies and filling.

13. Serve and enjoy these delightful strawberry cookie cheesecake treats!
