Equipment

  • mixing bowls
  • hand mixer or stand mixer
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • wire cooling rack

Ingredients
  

  • 15.25 oz strawberry cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup salted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup finely diced fresh strawberries
  • 6 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Spoon tablespoon-sized dollops onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Freeze for 1 hour until firm to prevent leaking during baking.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the strawberry cake mix, eggs, and butter until smooth.
  • Gently fold in diced strawberries and white chocolate chips.
  • Chill the dough for 15–20 minutes to make it easier to handle.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Scoop 2–3 tablespoons of dough and flatten slightly.
  • Place a frozen cheesecake dollop in the center and wrap the dough around it, sealing completely.
  • Place cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 13–16 minutes, until the tops are lightly golden.
  • Let cookies cool on the pan for 15 minutes to allow the cheesecake center to set.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

Freeze the cheesecake filling well to prevent leaking. Pat diced strawberries dry to avoid excess moisture. Store cookies in the refrigerator for 3–4 days in an airtight container. You can freeze assembled unbaked cookies and bake from frozen, adding 1–2 extra minutes.
