Red Velvet Cheesecake Cookies. Cheesecake.
That’s right, I put cheesecake in my cookies.
Which is enough reason alone for you to get into the kitchen and make these right now! I swirled bits of frozen cheesecake into the cookie batter to represent the cream cheese frosting trademark of red velvet cake, and added white chocolate chips to enhance the cheesecake flavors and give the cookies that perfect sweetness. And the gorgeous red and white contrast of these cookies is so gorgeous!
These are so perfect for Santa tonight!
