Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness and moisture; use salted butter if unsalted is unavailable; reduce added salt.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Provides sweetness and helps create a soft texture; can be replaced with coconut sugar for a deeper flavor.
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar Enhances depth of flavor and moisture; dark brown sugar can be used for a stronger molasses taste.
  • 1 large Large Egg Binds ingredients and adds structure; aquafaba can be used as a vegan substitute.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract Introduces aromatic sweetness; consider using almond extract for variation.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Provides structure to the cookies; gluten-free flour can be used for a gluten-free version.
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda Helps cookies rise and achieve a light texture; baking powder can be substituted but adjust quantity.
  • 0.5 tsp Salt Balances sweetness; use kosher salt for a more robust flavor.
For the Filling
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Creates the creamy cheesecake filling; mascarpone cheese can be substituted for a different flavor.
  • 0.5 cup Powdered Sugar Sweetens filling and helps achieve a smooth texture; use less for a less sweet filling or a sugar substitute to make it healthier.
For the Fresh Topping
  • 1 cup Fresh Strawberries Offers fruity flavor and moisture; frozen strawberries can work; ensure to drain excess moisture after thawing.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the large egg and the remaining teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually mix into wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in diced fresh strawberries.
  7. Scoop portions of dough onto the baking sheets, leaving space between them, and fill each with cream cheese filling.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers are still soft.
  9. Cool cookies on baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Optionally, top with additional diced strawberries and powdered sugar.
