Ingredients
  

Cookie Base
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure it's at room temperature for easier mixing.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour blend.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Cheesecake Filling
  • 1 cup crushed strawberries Fresh or thawed frozen strawberries work.
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened Ensure it's at room temperature for easy mixing.
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips Can substitute with other chocolate varieties.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and beat until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the crushed strawberries, cream cheese, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Baking
  1. Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers appear set.
  3. Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

To store, keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or in the oven for about 5 minutes.
