Hey hey! It’s National Cookie Day! We don’t think its a coincidence that National Cookie Day falls in December. We feel like December is cookie season in general. These Cheesecake cookies require minimal measuring and are quick to whip up. From start to finish, you can have warm cookies out of the oven in less than 15 minutes. They’re soft and the right amount of richness. Add them to your holiday baking and be sure to tag us on Instagram!

HOW TO MAKE CHEESECAKE COOKIES:

Mix up all your ingredients in a large mixing bowl and bake! They are that straightforward!

TIPS FOR THIS RECIPE:

We use the smallest box of instant pudding mix we can find. For some reason they come in varying sizes. It will work out okay with any of the boxes between 3.5-5oz.

CAN THE DOUGH BE MADE AHEAD:

Unfortunately, we wouldn’t recommend it. But, the good news is that it is straightforward and quick to add to a bowl, you aren’t saving that much time making it ahead. The problem we would foresee with making it ahead of time is that once it’s in the refrigerator, the pudding mix will begin to thicken. We're not sure this would bode well for your cookies.
