🧁 Caramel Cheesecake Cookies 🍪

recip


  1. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Use the back of a spoon or your thumb to create a small indentation in the center of each dough ball.
  3. Drop about 1/2 teaspoon of the cheesecake mixture into the indentation, then gently press it down to spread slightly.
  4. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the cheesecake mixture into the cookie dough for a marbled effect.

5. Bake Until Golden

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
  2. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

6. Drizzle and Garnish

  1. Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle caramel sauce generously over the tops using a spoon or piping bag.
  2. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt for a sweet-and-salty finish.

  • Pair with a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee for a cozy treat.
  • Serve as part of a dessert platter alongside other cookies, brownies, or slices of cheesecake.

Pro Tips for Success

  • Use Softened Ingredients: Ensure both the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature for smooth mixing.
