Ingredients

Units Scale

Cheesecake Dough:

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cookie Dough:

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (plus 1 tablespoon for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Mix cream cheese and butter: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  4. Prepare cinnamon-sugar mixture: In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  5. Form and bake cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, roll into balls, and coat each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place on baking sheets, flatten slightly, and bake for 10–12 minutes. Cool before serving.

Notes

  • For extra cheesecake flavor, press a small cube of cream cheese into the center of each dough ball before baking.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
