Chocolate Chip Cookies made with cream cheese are my new favorite variety! If you have any requests or suggestions, leave me a comment and let me know. I made two kinds on Sunday (in addition to these doughnuts) and had the butter all ready for a third recipe when I stopped myself – I really don’t want to look like Santa by the time December 25th rolls around! But I will definitely have quite a few cookie recipes coming your way this month. It may be national cookie day, but December really should be crowned national cookie month. Heavenly! I froze some to try to stop myself from eating all of them, but then discovered that I loved these frozen – because somehow they stay soft even straight from the freezer.

They are just slightly crispy at the edges, but the center is so soft and gooey. If you are a soft cookie lover, this recipe is for you.

The cream cheese makes these cookies SO soft. I’m always up for a new chocolate chip cookie recipe, especially when a fun twist is involved. I have already made a few varieties of this American favorite on the blog, like these and these, but today I have a little twist for you – chocolate chip cookies made with cream cheese! I saw the recipe over on Just a Taste and knew that I HAD to try them. Chocolate chip cookies are just the best, aren’t they? Simple, delicious, easy, always a crowd pleaser. And what better cookie to celebrate with than a good old fashioned chocolate chip cookie. It is National Cookie Day!!! I just HAD to celebrate this food holiday on the blog – after all, cookies are the best of all baked goods in my opinion.
