🔥 Methods

Method 1: Traditional Baking

Method 2: Refrigerate Dough

  • Chill dough for 1–2 hours before baking.
  • Cookies hold shape better and taste even richer.

Method 3: Cheesecake Swirl

  • Add cream cheese swirl on top before baking for a cheesecake look.
  • Mix ½ cup cream cheese + 2 tbsp sugar and swirl on cookie.

📜 History

Cheesecake cookies are a modern dessert invention inspired by the classic cheesecake — a rich dessert dating back to ancient Greece. The idea of turning cheesecake into a cookie became popular as home bakers sought easier, bite-sized versions of their favorite desserts.

Strawberry cheesecake became especially popular due to its bright flavor and visual appeal, and the cookie version took over social media and bakeries worldwide.

🧱 Formation

This cookie is formed from a cream cheese cookie base (like a soft sugar cookie), then boosted with strawberry flavor (freeze-dried strawberry powder) and white chocolate chips. The cream cheese keeps the cookie soft and rich, while the strawberry adds bright fruity flavor.
