Pudgy Cheesecake Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate or chopped dark
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine cream cheese and sugars until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add vanilla and eggs, mixing on medium until combined.
- Add flour, baking soda and salt, mixing on medium until a stretchy dough forms, about 30 seconds. Fold in chopped chocolate or chocolate chips.
- Place roughly 1 1/2-inch blobs of dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are puffy and very lightly golden on the edges. (The treats won't brown like traditional cookies; instead, they're a little springy to the touch, like a cake would be, even though they aren't at all cakey in texture.)
