Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies

Fun fact: I worked at Subway for 2 years, back in my high school days.. okay, I’ll admit, my high school days weren’t actually thaaaat long ago. Honestly, I really enjoyed my time there, it probably had more to do with who I worked with than what I was doing. I could tell you a lot about Subway that you probably don’t know. Like how there is literally an online school and you have to take classes before you can begin working. There is also a reason to why you never get as many olives as you’d put on yourself. Sandwich Artists (yeah, that’s the official job title!) are to put 4 olive slices per 6-inch and 8 slices per footlong. Crazy, right? Ever wondered what happens to broken cookies? Thats easy, we could eat them. 🙂 Subway came out with a brand new cookie while I was working there. The Raspberry Cheesecake Cookie. It instantly became my favorite. This copy cat version tastes just like the real thing, I swear. Remember, I’ve had (over) my fair share of these cookies back in the day.To make these you will first cream together butter and cream cheese.
Once that is mixed thoroughly, add sugar until combined. Add in vanilla and an egg. Once that is incorporated you will add a package of raspberry muffin mix, flour and baking powder. This is my favorite muffin mix to use. I just found it at my local grocery store. Then you will stir in some white chocolate chips. The dough will be very sticky.  Scoop out onto a parchment paper covered cookie sheet and bake at 350° for 12 minutes. These stay so soft and, honestly, get better the longer they cool. That is, if you can stand waiting. I definitely couldn’t.
