I didn't think that one could improve on chocolate chip cookies, but it turns out I was wrong! Cream cheese gives these cookies a rich, tangy taste that I'm absolutely in love with!
Beat together the butter,white sugar, brown sugar, and cream cheese.
Add the egg and vanilla, mix well.
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Add to the wet ingredients slowly, mixing well after each addition.
Mix in the chocolate chips.
Using a standard cookie scoop or a tablespoonful, drop dough onto parchment lined cookie sheets.Bake at 350 for 9-11 minutes until the edges are browned and baked. Remove and cool on cookie sheets.
The secret to these is to make sure you underbake them slightly.
