Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 oz (170 g) cream cheese, cold
  • 3 tbsp (38 g) granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 12 oz (340 g) fresh strawberries, hulled and finely diced
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated white sugar
  • 2 3/4 cups (344 g) all purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated white sugar
  • 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, very softened
  • 1 egg, at room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated white sugar, for rolling dough in

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cold cream cheese with 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar and vanilla extract.
  2. Use an electric mixer to beat until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  3. Hull and finely dice the fresh strawberries. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of granulated sugar over the strawberries and mix gently. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to release their juices.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. In another bowl, cream together the softened butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  6. Add in the egg and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until combined.
  8. Fold in the prepared strawberries gently.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you shape your cookies.
  10. Using your hands or a cookie scoop, take portions of dough and flatten them slightly in your palm.
  11. Place about 1 teaspoon of cheesecake filling in the center of each flattened dough piece.
  12. Carefully fold up the edges around the filling to encase it completely.
  13. Roll each filled dough ball in granulated sugar before placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  14. Bake for 11 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
  15. Allow cookies to cool on a cooling rack before serving.
