Unsalted Butter: The more fat content your cookies have, the softer they’ll be! I add butter for moisture and a rich flavor.Brown Sugar: For a caramelized sweetness.Granulated Sugar: White sugar is a must in baking! It melts down to create a smooth sweetness.Large Eggs: Needed to bind everything together.Vanilla: Like salt, vanilla extract is a flavor enhancer and will make your cookies taste better overall.Flour: I used all-purpose flour here!Baking Powder and Baking Soda: Baking powder and baking soda are a must! Your cookies won’t be fluffy without themSalt: Add a pinch to keep your cookies from tasting bland.Chocolate Chips: You can use milk or semi-sweet! Dark chocolate chips work too if you’re wanting something a little deeper.

How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies With Cheesecake Filling

This twist on a classic treat is going to be one of your new favorites. So easy, so delicious, and they bake in 13 minutes! Chocolate chip cookies and cheesecake is the combination you never knew you needed.

Only Mix Until Combined: This is important for both your cookie dough and cheesecake filling. If you overmix cookie dough, your cookies will turn out hard and dense. If you overmix cheesecake, it will deflate. The key for the fluffiest cookies and filling is to only mix until combined, then stop!Don’t Overbake: I always take my cookies out of the oven when the centers are still slightly soft. They’ll keep cooking for a few minutes once you take them out.Flavor Additions: For a turtle version of these cookies, throw in chopped pecans and drizzle with caramel sauce.

In the Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for 4-5 days.Reheating: For that just out of the oven freshness, pop your cookies in the microwave for 10-15 seconds until warm and melty.
