Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for cheesecake filling)
- 1 large egg (for cheesecake filling)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cheesecake filling)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup Reese's peanut butter cups (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually incorporate into the wet ingredients until combined. Chill the dough for an hour.
- For the cheesecake filling, beat softened cream cheese until smooth; mix in sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until creamy.
- Scoop chilled cookie dough, flatten it into a disk, place a spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center, fold edges over to seal, and roll into a ball.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Cool on a wire rack before drizzling with melted white chocolate and sprinkling chopped Reese’s on top.
