- In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Step 3: Assemble the Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough and flatten it slightly in your hand.
- Add a small dollop of the cheesecake filling (about 1/2 teaspoon) and a small swirl of blueberry jam in the center.
- Top with another small piece of dough and seal the edges, forming a ball.
Step 4: Bake
- Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
