Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for cheesecake filling)
  • 1 large egg (for cheesecake filling)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cheesecake filling)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix well; stir in vanilla.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined. Chill dough for at least one hour.
  4. For the cheesecake filling, beat softened cream cheese until smooth; mix in sugar, egg, and vanilla until creamy.
  5. Scoop chilled cookie dough into disks; place a spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center and fold edges over to seal. Roll into balls and space them on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Cool briefly before transferring to wire racks.
  7. Melt white chocolate chips in intervals until smooth; drizzle over cooled cookies and sprinkle with chopped Reese’s pieces.
