Instructions

Creating delightful Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies can be a fun and easy process. Here are the steps to guide you:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Cream the Butters and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Stir in the diced strawberries and lemon juice gently to keep the fruit intact.
7. Form Cookies: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop a portion of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
8. Add the Cheesecake Filling: Using your finger or a small spoon, create an indent in the center of each cookie dough ball. Add a dollop of the cheesecake filling into the indent.
9. Top and Bake: Place an additional dollop of cookie dough over the cheesecake filling, covering it slightly. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden.
10. Cool the Cookies: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then, transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
11. Dust with Powdered Sugar: If desired, dust the cooled cookies lightly with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
