How to assemble your cheesecake cookies 馃鈥嶐煃

Step 1

With the help of an adult, preheat the oven to 180 degrees and line two baking trays with baking paper.聽

Step 2

Scoop a spoonful of cookie dough and roll it into a ball. Repeat this until you've used up all of the dough.聽

Step 3

Take the cheesecake filling out of the freezer -聽this is where we work quickly to stop it melting:

Grab a ball of cookie dough and use your thumb to squish a dent in it for the cheesecake mixture. Put a frozen dollop of cheesecake in the dent and grab another ball of cookie dough and squash it on top. Squash the whole thing together so the cheesecake doesn't leak out while baking - place on your baking tray and repeat!

Step 4

With the help of an adult, bake the cookies in the oven for 12-14 minutes, or until golden. Cool before serving and then tuck in!
