LEMON CHEESECAKE COOKIES (SOFT-BAKED)
Lemon-flavored cheesecake cookies that are soft and chewy with a simple lemon glaze.
If you like cheesecake, lemon-flavors, and/or soft cakey cookies you are going to go crazy for these lemon cheesecake cookies!
They really taste like a miniature cheesecake in cookie form and they are so different from your typical chocolate-chip or peanut butter cookies.
These cookies are a bit more high maintenance than other cookie recipes, but it’s well worth the effort and time! These cookies do take a lot of advance planning (getting ingredients to room temperature + chilling the dough), so be prepared for that.

Soft Lemon Cheesecake Cookies Recipe
The softest lemon cheesecake flavored cookies
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) butter
- 4 ounces full-fat cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 and 1/4 cup white flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons lemon flavored pudding mix, dry
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
**Make sure the butter, cream cheese, and egg are all at room temperature before starting. Don't melt any of these ingredients in the microwave!**
- In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
- Add in the cream cheese and continue to beat until the batter is completely smooth. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, lemon extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cornstarch, and pudding mix. Stir together and then add to the wet ingredients. Mix until JUST combined being careful to not over-mix (to avoid dense cookies).
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Using a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon, measure in the cookie dough to just fill up the spoon (not heaping; these are small cookie balls)
- Bake at 350 degrees F for exactly 8 minutes and then remove from the oven. Remove to a cooling rack and let cool completely. (These are best after they are totally cooled and even better chilled.) Be very careful to not overbake these as they go from a thick soft cheesecake texture to a biscuit like texture.
- Once cooled, prepare the glaze by whisking together the lemon juice and powdered sugar. Add the lemon juice just until a thick glaze can come together. Spoon the glaze over the cookies and allow to set.
