Ingredients

For the Dough

1 cup softened butter this adds a rich and creamy texture to your cookies.
¾ cup granulated sugar sweetens the cookies while helping to achieve that delightful texture.
¼ cup brown sugar brings a hint of caramel flavor for a deeper taste.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract enhances the flavors and adds warmth to the cookies.
1 large egg binds the ingredients together for a moist cookie.
2 cups all-purpose flour the base of the cookie dough for the perfect structure.
½ teaspoon baking soda helps the cookies rise and become light and fluffy.
½ teaspoon salt balances the sweetness for a well-rounded flavor.
½ cup softened cream cheese gives these cookies their signature cheesecake flavor.
1 cup chopped fresh strawberries brings a burst of fruity sweetness to every bite.
½ cup white chocolate chips adds a creamy sweetness that pairs beautifully with strawberries.

Instructions

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add vanilla extract and egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated, about 1 minute.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until there are no lumps.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing slowly to avoid flour spills until just combined.
Add in the softened cream cheese and beat until the dough is smooth and cohesive.
Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries until evenly distributed.
Stir in the white chocolate chips ensuring they are well mixed into the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or rounded tablespoons, place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the centers remain slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing and ensure not to overmix the dough for soft cookies. Opt for fresh strawberries for the best flavor.
