Ingredients

Scale

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3/4 cup white chocolate chunks

1/3 cup freeze-dried raspberries, crushed

4 ounces cream cheese, chilled and cut into small cubes


Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

3. In a large bowl, beat the butter, 4 ounces softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.

4. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until a soft dough forms.

6. Fold in the white chocolate chunks and crushed freeze-dried raspberries, leaving a small amount of raspberry crumbs for the tops if desired.

7. Scoop portions of dough, flatten each one slightly, place a small chilled cream cheese cube in the center, and wrap the dough around it.

8. Roll into balls, place on the prepared baking sheet, and gently press a few extra white chocolate chunks or raspberry crumbs on top.

9. Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until the edges are lightly set and the centers are still soft.

10. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.


Notes

Use chilled cream cheese cubes for the filling so the centers stay creamy and do not melt too quickly.

Do not overmix the dough once the flour is added or the cookies can turn dense instead of soft.

For thicker cookies, chill the shaped dough balls for 20 to 30 minutes before baking.
