Ingredients
For the Cheesecake Layer:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (for tanginess)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Cookie Dough Layer:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (use heat-treated flour if eating raw)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
2 tbsp milk (or dairy-free milk)
For the Coating:
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (for dipping)
1/4 cup crushed graham cracker crumbs (optional for texture)
Instructions
- Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla and salt.
- Gradually add flour, then mix in milk until a dough forms. Fold in mini chocolate chips.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Indent each ball, spoon in 1 tsp of cheesecake mixture, close dough around filling, and reroll into balls. Freeze again for 15–20 minutes.
- Melt chocolate chips in microwave, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each ball into melted chocolate and optionally into graham cracker crumbs. Freeze for 30 minutes until set.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge and serve chilled.
Notes
Use heat-treated flour to make cookie dough safe for eating raw.
For a vegan version, substitute with dairy-free cream cheese, butter, and milk.
These can be made ahead and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.
If dough is too dry, add milk 1 tsp at a time.
Try filling variations like peanut butter or Nutella for a twist.
