Churro Cheesecake Donut Cookies are a delicious fusion of a soft, chewy donut and a creamy, indulgent cheesecake filling, coated in cinnamon-sugar for a delightful treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ cup unsalted butter, softened

¼ cup sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

⅓ cup milk

For the filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

⅓ cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the coating:

½ cup sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Slowly pour in the milk and stir until a soft dough forms.
  7. Scoop spoonfuls of dough and roll them into balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  8. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced a couple of inches apart.
  9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown on the edges. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  10. While the cookies cool, prepare the cheesecake filling by mixing the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  11. Once the cookies are cool enough to handle, cut a small slit in the center of each cookie and pipe the cheesecake filling inside.
  12. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together for the coating. Roll each stuffed cookie in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
  13. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

For a chocolatey twist, add mini chocolate chips to the dough.

For a fruity variation, replace the cheesecake filling with a fruit-flavored cream cheese mixture.

After rolling in cinnamon-sugar, dip cookies halfway in melted chocolate for an extra indulgent touch.
