Instructions
Make the Filling

Add the Filling
- Place a little cream cheese mix in the dent. Cover it gently with more dough.
Roll in Cinnamon Sugar
- Roll each cookie ball in the cinnamon sugar. Coat the whole ball fully for flavor.
Bake the Cookies
- Place cookies on a tray with parchment. Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes.
Cool and Serve
- Let cookies cool on a wire rack. Serve warm for the best soft texture.
Notes
- Use soft butter for smooth dough.
