Ingredients:
1 package refrigerated sugar cookie dough.
4 oz cream cheese, softened.
½ tsp vanilla extract.
¼ cup melted butter.
¼ cup cinnamon sugar (mix ¼ cup sugar with 1 tsp cinnamon)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll the sugar cookie dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gently press each one down to flatten slightly.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
4. Spoon a small amount of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each cookie dough ball.
5. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are set.
6. While still warm, brush each cookie with melted butter for extra flavor.
7. Roll the warm cookies in the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating them fully for that signature churro flavor.
8. Let the cookies cool slightly before enjoying the delicious combination of churro and cheesecake in every bite.
