Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

Filling

  • 1/3 cup blueberry jam

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing just until incorporated to form a soft dough.
  2. Swirl in the fillings: Divide the dough into portions and flatten them slightly. Place a spoonful of blueberry jam on top of each portion, then gently fold and swirl the jam into the dough with the cream cheese, creating a marbled effect without fully mixing.
  3. Shape and prepare for baking: Place the swirled dough portions onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  4. Bake the cookies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers remain soft.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy your soft and flavorful blueberry cheesecake swirl cookies.

Notes

  • Use softened butter and cream cheese for easier mixing and better texture.
  • Do not over-mix after adding the jam to preserve the swirl effect.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of coarse sugar on top before baking for added crunch.
