Why You'll Love These Blueberry Cheesecake Cookies
- These blueberry cheesecake cookies are packed with blueberry flavor thanks to using real blueberries - fresh or frozen!
- These cookies can easily be made dairy free, so they’re perfect for those with food allergies!
- Each cookie is loaded up with a cheesecake filling, keeping the cookies extra soft.
- I’m using simple ingredients here, so I bet you’ve already got everything you need!
Ingredients Needed

- Flour: I’ve tested these cookies with all purpose flour, but you can also use gluten free all purpose 1-1 baking flour if you’re gluten intolerant.
- Blueberries: you can use fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries or freeze dried blueberries. I recommend using smaller blueberries.
- Butter: feel free to use regular butter or vegan butter.
- Cream Cheese: I’ve tested this recipe with regular cream cheese and vegan cream cheese. Just note that if you’re using vegan cream cheese, you’ll want to use one with a coconut base. If you use vegan cream cheese you’ll also need to use a different amount of powdered sugar, which is listed in the recipe card at the bottom of this page!
Step by Step Instructions
Note: Full ingredient measurements and instructions can be found in the recipe card at the bottom of this page.

Step 1: Start by making the cheesecake filling. Mix the cream cheese with the powdered sugar in a bowl until smooth.
Scoop out 20 heaping teaspoons of the cheesecake mixture and place on a parchment lined plate. Place in the freezer for about an hour, or until almost solid.
Step 2: Once the cheesecake filling is frozen, line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the butter with the white sugar and light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract and mix once more.
Step 4: Add in all of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined - you don’t want to overmix! Stir in the blueberries gently.
Step 5: Scoop out the cookie dough so each cookie dough ball is 2 tablespoons. Place on the parchment lined baking sheet. Take the cheesecake filling out of the freezer and place one on top of each cookie dough ball.
Use your fingers to cover the cheesecake filling with the dough, making sure they’re completely covered. Once you’ve done one tray, place it in the fridge while you work on the second tray. Preheat your oven to 350°Fahrenheit.
Step 6: Bake the cookies one baking sheet at a time for 8-10 minutes. While one sheet is baking, place the other sheet in the fridge so they don’t get too warm. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
FAQs and Expert Tips
If you want more of a simple blueberry cookie, you can definitely skip the cheesecake filling.
First, make sure you’re using the correct amount of powdered sugar. The type of cream cheese you use will impact the amount of powdered sugar you need!
Next, make sure you give your cheesecake filling enough time in the freezer. I have noticed that vegan cream cheese takes longer to freeze, so keep that in mind!
If you want all the cheesecake vibes, you can stir some graham cracker crumbs into the cookie dough like I did with my raspberry cheesecake cookies!

Expert Tips
- I always recommend using a weighing scale to measure your ingredients! If you add too much flour then your cookies might turn out dry. If you are using measuring cups instead of a scale, make sure to use the scoop and level method to measure the flour. Not sure how to do this? Fluff up the flour in the bag with a fork, then use a spoon to spoon the flour directly into the measuring cup. Finally, use a knife to level it off.
- If you’re using frozen blueberries, be very gentle when stirring them in and note that they may slightly alter the color of the cookie dough.
- If you’re using fresh blueberries, make sure to pat them dry before adding them to the cookie dough. If you’re using frozen blueberries, don't thaw them first!
- Don’t skip out on the chilling stage! Make sure the cookies are in the fridge while you preheat the oven.
Storage and Freezing Instructions
These blueberry cheesecake cookies are best enjoyed on the day of baking! If storing, place in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Please note that they will get much softer if they’re not eaten on the same day, due to the cheesecake filling and the blueberries.
To freeze, place in a ziploc bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Let them thaw before enjoying.
