Ingredients:
– 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
– 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
– 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
– 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
– 1 Large Egg
– 1 3/4 cups All-Purpose Flour
– 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
– 1/4 tsp Salt
– 1 cup Mini Reese’s Pieces
– 1/2 cup Mini Chocolate Chips
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Cream Together:
In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter until the mixture is silky smooth.
3. Sweeten the Mix:
Gradually add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the mixture, beating until it turns light and fluffy.
4. Add Egg and Vanilla:
Stir in the vanilla extract and egg, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Mix in the Goodies:
Gently fold in the mini Reese’s Pieces and mini chocolate chips for that perfect candy crunch in every cookie.
7. Shape the Cookies:
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
8. Bake:
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. The centers should remain soft and slightly underbaked for a chewy texture.
9. Cool Down:
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these decadent Cheesecake Cookies loaded with Reese’s Pieces and chocolate chips!
