🧁 Caramel Cheesecake Cookies 🍪

Ingredients:

For the Cookie Dough:

 

½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened

½ cup (100g) brown sugar, packed

¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour

¼ tsp baking soda

A pinch of salt

For the Cheesecake Filling:

 

4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened

¼ cup (50g) powdered sugar

¼ tsp vanilla extract

For the Topping:

 

¼ cup (60ml) store-bought or homemade caramel sauce

A generous pinch of flaky sea salt

Instructions:

Prep Your Workspace:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Make the Cookie Dough:

In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and pinch of salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:

In another bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Assemble the Cookies:

Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of cookie dough and flatten each into a small disc. Place a small spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center, then gently fold the dough around it, sealing well. Roll back into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

Bake to Perfection:

Bake for 12–14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet.

Add the Final Touch:

Once cooled, drizzle warm caramel sauce over the top of each cookie. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt for that perfect sweet-and-salty finish.
