Tender cheesecake cookies filled with cherry pie filling
Share:
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese¹ softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract2
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour3
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Graham cracker crumbs
- 21 ounce can cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Line two cookie sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until fluffy and well-combined.
- Beat in egg, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Stir in vanilla extract until incorporated.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir in flour mixture until just incorporated.
- Cover, and refrigerate dough at least 3 hours (up to 24 hours). The cookies will hold their shape better if you refrigerate the dough for 8-24 hours.
- Toward the end of the chilling time, preheat oven to 350 F.
- Scoops dough using a medium cookie scoop (1 ½ tablespoons).
- Roll in graham cracker crumbs, and place on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes. You want the edges to be just barely golden brown.
- Remove from oven, and immediately press 1/2 tablespoon measuring spoon into each cookie to create an indentation.
- Fill indentation with fruit filling.
- Let cool for 5-10 minutes on the cookie sheet.
- Transfer to wire rack to finish cooling.
- Store leftover cookies in the fridge.
Notes
- Full-fat or 1/3-less fat cream cheese will work. I don't recommend using fat-free cream cheese.
- You can sub up to 1 teaspoon almond extract for part of the vanilla extract.
- Please be sure to stir the flour to break it up. Then lightly spoon it into the measuring cup and level when measuring. Packing the flour will result in a dry or doughy cookie.
