Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, full-fat
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Scoop teaspoon-sized portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In another bowl, cream unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  3. Gradually mix in all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until a soft dough forms.
  4. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Combine granulated sugar with cinnamon in a small bowl.
  6. Scoop about 2 tbsp of cookie dough, flatten it in your palm, and place a frozen cheesecake ball in the center. Wrap the dough around the filling to form a ball and roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  7. Place the cookie balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Freeze the cheesecake filling to prevent it from leaking during baking. Chill the dough for easier handling and to prevent spreading. Ensure the dough completely covers the filling to avoid leakage.
