Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 large egg yolk room temperature
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
For the Cream Cheese Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened, room temperature

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in the egg and egg yolk, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together. Gradually blend this mixture into the wet mixture.
  5. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
Assembly
  1. Take a small amount of cookie dough, flatten it in your palm, add a teaspoon of cream cheese filling, and wrap the dough around it to form a ball.
  2. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Baking
  1. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden.
  2. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve cookies at room temperature so the cream cheese stays soft. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. For a soft center, warm in the microwave for 5-8 seconds.
