Description
A delectable combination of chewy cookies infused with cinnamon roll flavor and a creamy cheesecake filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk
Instructions
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (3-5 minutes). Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until incorporated.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Gradually add this dry mix into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out dough balls, flatten slightly, add a dollop of cheesecake filling, cover with another dough ball, and roll into a ball.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are golden and centers look slightly underbaked. Let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- For icing, whisk together powdered sugar and a splash of milk, then drizzle over cooled cookies, if desired.
Notes
Cookies are best served warm, but also delightful at room temperature. Can be paired with coffee or vanilla ice cream.
