Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 ml) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (240 ml) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) brown sugar
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Dairy and Binding Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350F (175C) and prepare baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whip butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and airy. Incorporate eggs and vanilla, blending thoroughly.
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly integrate dry ingredients into the creamy mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Whisk cream cheese with remaining sugar until silky and uniform. Delicately fold fresh blueberries into the cream cheese mixture.
- Drop cookie dough portions onto lined sheets, creating a small well in the center of each cookie.
- Carefully spoon cream cheese and blueberry blend into each cookie’s indentation, using a knife to create elegant swirl patterns.
- Place cookies in preheated oven, baking for 12-15 minutes until edges turn golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from oven and let cookies rest on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling.
- Once cooled, serve and enjoy the delicate blueberry cheesecake swirl cookies.
Notes
- Cream cheese temperature matters, so let it soften at room temperature for smooth swirling without lumps.
- Freeze fresh blueberries before adding to prevent color bleeding and maintain cookie’s aesthetic appearance.
- Use parchment paper or silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even cookie browning.
- Chill dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and maintain cookie shape.
