I re-made these cookies along with my blueberry cheesecake cookies for the fourth of July, and took the opportunity to re-photograph them. My original image below (from 5 years ago) wasn’t that bad, but it’s always fun to update some old pictures.

It really is a shame I don’t get to make my older recipes very often. I’m always trying new ones, but that doesn’t mean I love them any less. These raspberry cheesecake cookies were just as delicious as I remember them. It’s been a while, but I’m happy I had the excuse to make them again.

Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies

These raspberry cheesecake cookies come together quickly because they start with a muffin mix! It’s a super versatile recipe. Just use your favorite flavor of muffin mix. Cream cheese in the batter makes the cookies soft, tender, and chewy.

White chocolate chips add just the right touch of sweetness and richness. Talk about a semi-fancy, high-class cookie to share with friends! Apparently these are similar to the raspberry cheesecake cookies from Subway too! Awesome!
