ADVERTISEMENT

1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups

Directions:

Step 1: Preparing the Cookie Dough

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
Cover the cookie dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.

Step 2: Making the Cheesecake Filling

In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add the granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract, and beat until creamy and well blended

Step 3: Assembling the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Take a tablespoon-sized portion of chilled cookie dough and flatten it into a disk with your hands.
Place a spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center of the dough.
Fold the edges of the cookie dough over the filling, sealing it inside.
Gently roll the cookie dough into a ball, making sure the filling is completely enclosed.
Place the stuffed cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely

Chocolate Reese’s Topping

Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the cooled cookies.
Sprinkle the chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups over the white chocolate topping.
Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
