Cooking Instructions

30 mins

1

Preheat oven to 350°F. For the cookie dough, beat the butter and sugar together for 2 minutes. Add egg and egg yolks (save the egg whites for later). Mix in the vanilla.
2

Mix the flour, baking soda, and cream of tarter in a small bowl and then add it to the butter mixture. Add in chocolate chips if desired.
3

Shape the cookies into walnut sized balls and roll the cookie dough in granulated sugar, or brown sugar if you are using cinnamon cream cheese, and place on a greased cookie sheet. Take your ring finger and stick it into each cookie to form a small hole.
4

For the cheesecake mixture, soften the cream cheese. Then mix together the cream cheese of your choice, egg whites, and 1/2 cup sugar until well blended. Pour into the small holes in each cookie. Fill them to the top!
5

Bake for 13 to 17 minutes at 350°F until the edges are barely golden brown.
