Love cheesecake but don't want to go through all the work of making one from scratch? Us too. That's how our Cherry Cheesecake Cookies came into existence.

Cherry Cheesecake Cookies

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese, butter, and sugar until light and fluffy occasionally scraping down sides of the bowl. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour. Cover and chill dough 2 to 4 hours or until firm.

Roll dough into 1-1/2-inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Make a small indentation in the dough with your thumb and fill with cherry pie filling. Sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until cookies begin to brown around edges. Remove cookies to wire cooling rack, cool completely. 

In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
