Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Add the eggs to the mixture one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and creamy.
  7. Form a ball of cookie dough, flatten it, place cheesecake filling in the center, and seal the edges.
