Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling by mixing 4 oz of cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth. Dollop the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for about 30 minutes until solid.

  3. Cream together 1/2 cup of softened butter, 4 oz of cream cheese, 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Beat in 1 large egg, then add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of lemon zest.
  5. Incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in 1 cup of blueberries carefully.
  7. Assemble the cookies by flattening a tablespoon of dough, placing a cheesecake filling piece in the center, covering with another tablespoon of dough, and ensuring the filling is enclosed.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 11-13 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
