CREAM CHEESE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets with non-stick cooking spray (I use butter flavored) and set aside.
• Combine cream cheese, margarine, and sugars. Blend in egg and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Add chocolate chips and mix.
• Bake 15-18 minutes or until edges are slightly browned. Enjoy!

CREAM CHEESE STUFFED CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips, if using.
• In another small bowl, whisk the egg, yolk, corn syrup, and vanilla.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment beat the butter, shortening, and sugars on medium-high speed until smooth and lightened in color, about 2 minutes.
• On medium speed, add the egg-yolk mixture and beat just until combined.
• Reduce the speed to low and slowly add the dry ingredients.
• Stop the mixer once there are still some streaks of flour left, then continue mixing by hand with a flexible spatula.
• Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop or measuring spoons, scoop about 36 balls of dough onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Flatten the dough into thick discs with your hands or the bottom of a measuring cup. If the dough is super sticky, wet your hands before pressing on the portioned dough. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• To make the filling, whisk the softened cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Place in the refrigerator while the cookie dough chills.
• Remove the cookie discs from the refrigerator, then press them down so they are about 2 1/2 inches wide. Place 2 teaspoons of filling in the middle of each one.
• With your hands, gently stretch the cookie dough over the filling and roll the ball in your hands until the filling is surrounded by the cookie dough.
• Place additional granulated sugar in a small bowl, then roll each cookie dough in the sugar before returning to the baking sheets and placing in the freezer for 1 hour (this will prevent the cookies from spreading in the oven). Preheat the oven to 350 F.
• Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. The cookies are done, when they look dry and slightly crinkly on top.
• Remove from the oven and let cool briefly before enjoying.
