Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup Reese’s Pieces
  • Melted chocolate for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cheesecake filling by mixing softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Scoop dollops onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for an hour.
  2. For the cookie dough, beat softened butter with brown and granulated sugars until fluffy. Mix in one egg and vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and Reese’s Pieces.
  4. Flatten two tablespoons of cookie dough in your palm, place a frozen cheesecake scoop in the center, then cover it with more dough, ensuring it’s sealed completely.
  5. Bake on a parchment-lined tray at 350°F (175°C) for 12-14 minutes until golden around the edges but still soft in the middle.
