Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling by blending cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Freeze small discs for 1 hour.
  2. Make the Strawberry Jam by cooking diced strawberries with sugar over medium heat until thickened for 10-15 minutes. Cool before using.
  3. Prepare Cookie Dough by whisking flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in one bowl. Cream butter and sugar in another bowl, then mix in egg and vanilla.
  4. Incorporate strawberry jam gently into the dough, leaving pockets visible for bursts of flavor.
  5. Form cookies by encasing frozen cheesecake discs with cookie dough, rolling them in sugar for a sparkling finish.
  6. Bake cookies at 350°F for 11-12 minutes until edges are golden. They should be soft in the center.
  7. Cool baked cookies on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
