Ingredients:

• 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

• ¼ cup cornstarch

• ½ teaspoon baking powder

• ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened

• 4 oz cream cheese, softened

• ¾ cup granulated sugar

• 1 large egg

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

• Optional: A pinch of salt (to enhance flavor)

Instructions:

1. Preheat & Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Set aside.

3. Cream Butter & Cream Cheese
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese together until smooth and creamy.

4. Add Sugar & Wet Ingredients
Add the sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. Then, beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

5. Combine Dry & Wet Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

6. Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.

7. Scoop & Bake
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

8. Cool & Enjoy
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or store them in an airtight container!

Tips for the Best Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cookies:

• For an extra decadent touch, try using dark chocolate chips or a mix of white and semi-sweet chocolate chips.

• Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for a slightly thicker and chewier texture.

• Serve with a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of coffee for the ultimate indulgence.

These cookies are perfect for any occasion—whether you’re making them for a family gathering, gifting them to a friend, or simply treating yourself. Happy baking!
