These Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake Cups are filled with a creamy cheesecake center and surrounded by buttery chocolate chip cookie dough!
I’ve combined two of my all time favorites into one, crazy delicious, bite-sized treat! Well, it’s more than just one bite, but you get the idea.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake Cups
I gave some of these cookie cups to a neighbor and he told me they were the BEST thing he’s ever eaten. Seriously! They’re so good and so easy to make too!
You’ll start by mixing up my super simple chocolate chip cookie dough. Press just about a tablespoon’s worth of the cookie dough into a cupcake liner. I like to use these cupcake liners because they hold up nicely when baked.
Whip up my super simple (5 ingredient) cheesecake filling and then pour about another tablespoon or a little more on top of the pressed cookie dough.
To finish off the top, just crumble up some more cookie dough and place little balls of cookie dough all over the tops. Leave a little room for some of the cheesecake to poke through, it makes it a pretty presentation!
You’re going to LOVE these! I’m pretty sure these are the best thing since sliced bread.
Quick Tips for Making:
- If you’re in a hurry try using store bought cookie dough
- Swap regular size chocolate chips for mini chocolate chips
- Store these in the fridge since they have cheesecake centers
- Use my peanut butter cookie dough instead of chocolate chip for a fun twist!
Just try keeping your hands off of these! They’re downright delicious!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake Cups
Ingredients
For the Cookie Dough
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cups butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl sift together flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a large bowl beat together butter, 1/2 cup sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and 1 tsp vanilla until combined.
- Slowly add flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time while mixer is going, scraping sides, until it is all combined. Add in chocolate chips.
- Line muffin tin with foil cupcake liners. Press about a flat tablespoon's worth of cookie dough into each cupcake liner so it's flat on the bottom, leaving about 1 1/2 cups cookie dough remaining. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the same bowl used to sift the flour together add the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 cup sugar, 2 large eggs, and 2 tsp vanilla until smooth (using a hand mixer).
- Scoop a tablespoon of the cheesecake mixture into each cupcake liner.
- Use the remaining cookie dough and break up little bits and place on top of each cheesecake cup.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
- Place in fridge to chill for at least 1 hour and serve. Enjoy!

I’m working at a hospital during this crazy time in our world. Every Friday I bring treats for the crew for the employees who maybe don’t get noticed as much. Security Officers, housekeeping staff, Admitting staff. I made these for my Friday deliveries and EVERYONE loved them!

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this website.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance.
I must say you have done a very good job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Internet explorer.
Excellent Blog!

Nicole @ The Marvelous Misadventures of a Foodie
You had me at cheesecake 😉 I like that they are in little cups – it makes it a great take along for a BBQ or party!
Summer is still in full swing here – its hard for me to think about all things pumpkin when I am dripping in sweat just from walking to my car. Hopefully it will start to cool off a smidge in the next few weeks… 🙂
Shawn
Since they’re in little cups, they cook faster too! Which cuts down on the heat in your kitchen. Win-Win!
Hopefully it will cool down soon for us all!
Suzanne
Yum, these caught my on from your FB page so delicious looking, I pinned for making later. Thanks for the recipe 🙂
Shawn
Thanks Suzanne! I hope you like them! 🙂
christina @ oven adventures
these look great. i’m up in Vancouver and it’s suppose to be as hot here this week as it was in the middle of summer. Oh fall where art thou?
Shawn
Even though it’s still warm outside, I am itching to pull out some pumpkin and spices and go crazy with baking! Hopefully it cools down there for you soon!
Hayley @ The Domestic Rebel
Shawn, those look delicious. Cheesecake + chocolate chip cookie dough = heavenly in my book! Also love that these are portion-controlled because I’m known to take down cheesecakes and I need all the help I can get.
Shawn
Thanks Hayley! They are a heavenly combination for sure!
