Oh. My. Heck. If you love blueberry muffins and blueberry pancakes, you are going to love these cookies! I made this recipe for the first time over 5 years ago, but made them again with my Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies for the fourth of July, and they were the perfect “red, white, and blue” dessert!

Cream cheese in the batter makes these blueberry cheesecake cookies soft, tender, and chewy. White chocolate chips add just the right touch of sweetness and richness. These cookies are pretty cheap and easy to make, and everyone loves them!

I make these cookies all of the time as does my mom. We find that keeping the dough cold between balling and baking helps them not to spread as much. I wanted to try the raspberry version but couldn’t find the muffin mix so I’m going to try the strawberry Martha White version instead. Wanted red for the holidays. Fingers crossed they are just as good.
The raspberry muffin mix is harder to find. I get mine at Winco. Hopefully the Martha White mix worked well for you. Glad to hear you are enjoying these cookies Chris!
Can you make the dough the day before and refrigerate it over night?
That should be fine, especially if you swap the shortening for butter. I would potentially let the cookie dough come back to room temperature before baking if you use the shortening. Just so it spreads well.
