Instructions

Prepare the cheesecake filling by mixing cold cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth. Chill while making the cookie dough.
In a separate bowl, mix together granulated sugar, spices, flour, salt, and baking soda. Cream softened butter with brown sugar until fluffy; add egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually mix in dry ingredients to form dough.
Preheat your oven. Scoop dough into balls, flatten slightly, place a teaspoon of cheesecake filling in center, and seal.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 11 minutes until just set and soft in the center. Cool on a wire rack before serving.
