Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet (For cookies)
  • 1 Hand mixer (For creamy filling)
  • 1 Wire rack (For cooling)

Ingredients

  • 1 package sugar cookie dough - refrigerated
  • 8 ounces cream cheese - softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Reese's peanut butter cups - chopped
  • ¼ cup caramel sauce - for drizzle

Instructions 

  • Bake large sugar cookies according to package directions and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Whisk softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until the frosting is light and fluffy.
  • Spread a thick, even layer of the cheesecake mixture over the center of each cooled cookie.
  • Press a generous amount of chopped peanut butter cups into the cream cheese to cover it.
  • Drizzle with caramel and chill in the refrigerator for ten minutes to allow the layers to set.

Notes

Ensure cookies are completely cooled before topping. Use brick-style cream cheese for a stable cheesecake layer that won't run.
