Ingredients
Cookie dough
- 17.5oz package sugar cookie mix or close to 17.5oz
- ½ cup butter softened
- 2 TBS unbleached flour
Cream cheese filling/pie filling
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
Topping
- ½ cup Graham cracker crumbs
- 1 TBS light brown sugar
Instructions
Cookie dough
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare sugar cookie mix according to package directions.
- Add 2 tablespoons flour and mix until dough is soft and crumbly.
- Refrigerate dough while you make the filling and topping for about 15-20 minutes.
Cream cheese filling
- Mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Put cream cheese filling in a zipper bag and snip corner off or use a piping bag.
Topping
- Combine graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar.
Cookies
- Remove dough from refrigerator and make 2 tablespoon size balls, placing them 2" apart on cookie sheet.
- Make a small "bowl" in each of the balls using a teaspoon.
- Pipe or spoon a teaspoon of cheesecake mixture into each "bowl."
- Put three cherries or 2 teaspoons cherry pie filling on top of cheesecake mixture.
- Bake cookies 15-17 minutes, until edges start to turn brown and centers are set.
- Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.
- Once cool, drizzle cookies with remaining cream cheese mixture and sprinkle with graham cracker topping.
Notes
- Make sugar cookie mix according to the package and then add the flour. My package of sugar cookie mix called for 1/2 cup butter and 1 egg.
- The cookies will drop in the middle when they are done and not be puffed up.
- Use a measuring spoon that’s more of a bowl than a regular spoon to press down the center of the cookie. This will give the cookies better sides of the bowl than a regular spoon.
- Replace the cherry pie filing with your favorite filling for different variations. Strawberry, chocolate, and blueberry are all great options!
