A few years ago, Elle and I were picking up some holiday baking essentials at the store while I had a huuuuge craving for cherry cheesecake. But we were right next to a bunch of cookie-baking supplies, and it struck me.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cherry cheesecake COOKIES.<\/em><\/p>\n

You guys know that my family adores cheesecake. We have it for birthdays instead of regular cake, and it\u2019s always on our holiday tables.<\/p>\n

\u00a0From my\u00a0nana\u2019s easy cheesecake<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0lemon cheesecake<\/a>, my family has a cheesecake for just about every occasion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We even turn our cupcakes into cheesecake with\u00a0cherry cheesecake cupcakes<\/a>. So of course we would love these cookies, too!<\/p>\n

What are cherry cheesecake cookies?<\/h2>\n

These cherry cheesecake cookies are pretty much a cheesecake version of\u00a0thumbprint cookies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll whip up a cookie dough and cheesecake filling separately. Then, mold the cookie dough into a bowl-like shape, with a little indentation. Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into each little indentation, and bake \u2019em up.<\/p>\n

The cookie dough has graham cracker crumbs in it, so you get the flavor of a\u00a0graham cracker crust<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Once they\u2019re baked, you\u2019ll top each one with some cherry pie filling (because what\u2019s cheesecake with out cherries?!), and there you have it.\u00a0Cherry cheesecake<\/a>\u00a0in an adorable cookie form!<\/p>\n
