🛒 Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Cheesecake Swirl

6 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Blueberry Swirl

⅓ cup blueberry jam or homemade blueberry compote
(Optional: fresh blueberries, chopped into tiny bits)

🧁 7 Directions — Step-by-Step

1️⃣ Make the Cheesecake Swirl

In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Refrigerate while you make the cookie dough—this helps it firm up for easier swirling.

2️⃣ Whisk Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Mix well to evenly distribute the leavening so your cookies rise beautifully.

3️⃣ Cream Butter & Sugars

In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 2–3 minutes until light and fluffy.
This step is key for soft, bakery-style cookies.

4️⃣ Add Eggs & Vanilla

Mix in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
Beat until creamy, smooth, and fully combined.

5️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients to Wet

Slowly add the dry mixture into the butter mixture.
Stir until just combined—don’t overmix.
You want a soft, thick dough.

6️⃣ Swirl in Cheesecake & Blueberry

Drop small spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture and blueberry jam into the dough.
Gently fold 2–3 times with a spatula—do NOT overmix, or it will turn purple.
You want thick ribbons of cheesecake and blueberry running through.

7️⃣ Scoop & Bake

Scoop large cookie dough balls onto a lined baking sheet.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers still soft.
Cool for 10 minutes before moving—this sets the cheesecake swirl.
