# Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 325°F and line cookie sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
02 -
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a larger bowl, cream together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and lump-free. Add vanilla, whole egg, and yolk; beat until light and fluffy. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients into wet mixture until combined. Fold in chocolate chips evenly.
03 -
Beat softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add granulated sugar and vanilla, beating until silky. Filling should be scoopable yet firm.
04 -
Scoop 2 tablespoons of cookie dough, flatten, and create a small well in the center. Place 1 teaspoon of cheesecake filling in the well. Flatten another portion of dough and cover the filling. Seal the edges and roll into a ball. Place on prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between cookies.
05 -
Bake cookies at 325°F for 15–18 minutes, until edges are golden and centers appear slightly underdone. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
# Tips:
01 -
Cookies will settle as they cool; ensure cheesecake filling is fully enclosed to prevent leakage.
02 -
For best flavor, use high-quality vanilla extract in both dough and filling.
