How to Make Orange Cream Cheese Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon orange zest until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
