Steps
Make the jam: cook 120g chopped strawberries with 20g sugar and 1 tsp lemon juice until bubbling. Mash lightly, stir in ½ tsp cornstarch, and cook until thick. Cool fully.
Melt 100g white chocolate and let it cool slightly. Beat 225g full-fat cream cheese until smooth, then mix in the chocolate and ½ tsp vanilla until creamy.
Spread the cheesecake mix on parchment paper, spread the jam on top, and freeze until completely firm. Cut into equal chunks.
Brown 140g butter in a saucepan until it smells nutty and weighs about 115g. Let it cool slightly.
Whisk the browned butter with 90g brown sugar and 55g granulated sugar. Add 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla and mix until smooth.
Fold in 195g flour, 8g cornstarch, ½ tsp baking soda, ¼ tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt until a soft dough forms.
Gently fold in the frozen cheesecake chunks, scoop the cookies onto a tray, and chill the dough for 1 to 2 hours until firm.
Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 12 to 15 minutes until the edges are golden and the centers look slightly soft.
Rest the cookies on the tray for 5 minutes, then move them to a cooling rack and let them cool completely.
Tips and common mistakes
Keep the cheesecake chunks frozen until the moment you fold them in, or they will smear through the dough.
Weigh the butter after browning, since it loses water and too much will make the dough greasy.
Pull the cookies out while the centers still look soft; they set as they cool on the tray.
Chill the scooped dough well so the cookies spread less and stay thick.
Questions
Can I use store-bought strawberry jam?
Yes. The recipe says the homemade jam is optional, so a good store-bought jam works as the cheesecake layer.
Why is my cookie dough greasy?
You may have used too much browned butter. Brown 140g butter down to about 115g and let it cool before mixing.
How do I store the baked cookies?
Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge because of the cheesecake filling, and eat within a few days.
