Ingredients

  • 2 boxes of Jiffy blueberry muffin mix
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 stick of butter softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Beat together cream cheese, butter, and brown sugar until smooth. Add in eggs, one at a time, beating until fully incorporated.
  • Combine the butter mixture with the muffin mix, mixing until evenly combined.
  • If using the white chocolate chips, using a spatula, fold them in now.
  • Chill dough in the fridge for at least 2 hours (this prevents the batter from spreading out too much during baking).
  • Form into tbsp sized balls and spread about two inches apart on a lightly greased cookies sheet.
  • Bake at 325 degrees for 13-15 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool for a minute or two on the cookie sheet then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • While you can stir the chocolate chips into the batter, for best results I recommend pressing them into the tops of the cookies (carefully), just after removing them from the oven. As the cookies harden, they will naturally secure the chocolate chips.
  • Don't skip letting these cookies chill in the fridge. Chilling is crucial to prevent spreading.
  • If you don't have a cookie scoop, no problem. Use a tablespoon instead.
  • Make sure you leave enough space between the cookies so that when they bake they don't form one giant cookie mass.
  • For minimal spreading, freeze the cookie dough balls on the baking sheet for 30 minutes before placing them in the hot oven to bake.
  • These would be delicious with some chopped walnuts or even slivered almonds mixed in.
