Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cream cheese filling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drop tablespoon-sized balls of cookie dough, leaving space between each.
- Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to create a small indentation in the center of each cookie.
- Fill the indentation with a small dollop of the cream cheese mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a pinch of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking.
- You can substitute the semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark chocolate or white chocolate chips for a different taste.
