Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, then fold in chocolate chips.
  • Chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the cream cheese filling by beating softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Scoop about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough and flatten it in your palm.
  • Add a teaspoon of cream cheese filling to the center and top with another flattened piece of cookie dough.
  • Seal the edges and roll into a smooth ball, then place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them at least 3 inches apart.
  • Bake for 11 to 13 minutes or until the edges are set and slightly golden.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
