Oreo Cheescake Cookies

Christmas is just around the corner! WOOOOOT!

That means I get to spend more time in the kitchen. LOL. Nothing beats baking and making money out of it. 

One of my best sellers are Oreo Cheesecake Cookies. I've found a good recipe on the internet but I've tweaked it a bit to suit my taste and my market. What I'll be sharing is the original recipe I found. Feel free to adjust/change according to your preference.


Oreo Cheesecake Cookies (yields 12-15 cookies)

Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
3.5 oz cream cheese at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup flour
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
10 pieces Oreo cookies, crushed

Procedure

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicon mat.
2. Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor. 
3. In a bowl of a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and cream cheese until combined.
4. Add sugar and vanilla extract and mix until well incorporated.
5. Gradually mix in the flour. Stir in the chocolate chips.
6. Using a medium sized cookie scoop, scoop dough and form a ball with your hands.Roll on crushed
Oreo cookies.
7. Place on cookie sheet, 1 inch apart.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes. When you see the edges starting to brown, it's time to take them out.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes then transfer them to a wire rack.
10. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.


There. It takes about 35 minutes to get a batch done. I suggest you make double or even triple of the batch. One batch usually doesn't last long. Enjoy! :)
