Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies
- 1 12 cups all-purpose flour
- 12 teaspoon baking soda
- 14 teaspoon salt
- 12 cup unsalted butter, softened (1 stick)
- 12 cup granulated sugar
- 23 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 egg, large
- 1 12 teaspoons vanilla
- 34 cup chocolate chips
- 34 cup dried strawberries
- 12 cup powdered sugar
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 (12 ounce) container whipped topping (I like cool whip)
- 1 (10 ounce) jar strawberry jam
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl sift together flour baking soda and salt.
- Set aside.
- In a large bowl beat together butter and both sugars until light and fluffly, scraping the sides as needed, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce speed to low, then add the egg and vanilla mixing well.
- With the mixer running gradually add the dry mixture until well incorporated.
- Mix in the chocolate and strawberries.
- Arrange 1 TBSP balls of dough on the baking sheet, leaving 1 1/2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake the cookies rotating the sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until spread and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cool on pan for 5 mins, then transfer to wire rack.
- While cookies cool make the filling.
- In a large bowl combine the powdered sugar, cream cheese and vanilla.
- Beat them together until very smooth, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Use a rubber spatula to fold in the whipped topping.
- Transfer to a piping bag with a large tip.
- I use a ziplock bag.
- Refrigerate until slightly firm.
- If using a zip close bag snip the corner off.
- Pipe the filling in a circle over each cookie to cover most of it.
- Fill the center with a dollop of jam.
- Refrigerate the cookies at least 1 hour before serving.
