Instructions
1
First, make the cheesecake filling. In a stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until fluffy and creamy.
2
Use a spoon to scoop out 1 teaspoon sized balls. Place on a parchment paper lined pan. Place in the freezer while you make the cookie dough.
3
In a clean bowl of a stand mixer, add the cold cubed butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Beat to combine and until no clumps of butter remain.
4
Add in the egg and vanilla. Stir to combine.
5
Add in the gluten free flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until a thick cookie dough forms.
6
In a small bowl, make the cinnamon swirl mixture. Mix the softened butter and cinnamon until combined.
7
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
8
Scoop out 1 teaspoon of cookie dough. Flatten into a disc. Spread a little cinnamon mixture on top. Then, top with a frozen ball of cheesecake.
9
Take another 1 teaspoon of cookie dough. Take a pea size amount of cinnamon mixture and roll together with the cookie dough until swirled. Flatten into a disc. Place this on top of the cheesecake ball. Use your fingers to pinch the cookie dough discs together, enclosing the cheesecake ball.
10
Place 3 inches apart on the prepared pan. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Finally, remove from the oven and serve!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Chill Your Dough Between Steps ❄️Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and filling to prevent the cinnamon butter from melting into the dough, ensuring distinct swirls and layers.
- Use Cold Butter for the Cinnamon Swirl 🧈Keep your butter for the cinnamon filling straight from the refrigerator and mix it just until combined with cinnamon and brown sugar—this prevents it from absorbing into the dough and creates that signature creamy texture.
- Don't Overmix the Cream Cheese Filling 🎂Beat cream cheese filling only until smooth and incorporated, as overworking it can make the filling tough and grainy instead of silky and spreadable.
- Underbake for Maximum Gooeyness ⏱️Remove cookies from the oven when the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underdone—they'll continue cooking on the pan and deliver that signature gooey, cinnamon-roll texture.
- Swirl Gently to Avoid Over-Mixing 🌀Use a butter knife or skewer to create swirls rather than fully folding the cinnamon butter into the dough, which keeps the filling distinct and prevents it from breaking down the dough structure.
