Ingredients
  

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup white chocolate chips

1/2 cup crushed graham crackers (for the cheesecake crust effect)

Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Cream the Cheeses: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter using an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Add Sugars: Gradually add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the mixture, beating until well combined and fluffy.

        Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the egg and vanilla extract into the bowl. Mix until fully incorporated.

          Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.

            Add Extras: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and crushed graham crackers, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop the Cookies: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

                Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should look slightly underbaked as they will firm up while cooling.

                  Cool Down: Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Optional Dusting: Once cooled, lightly dust the cookies with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
