Cocoa Cheesecake Cookies for Lunchbox

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 170 °C, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the filling: Mix together the Greek yogurt, light cream cheese, sugar and and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a plastic bag.
3. Prepare the cookies: Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, eggs, and vanilla. Stir in the sugar. Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated. If the dough is too sticky to roll, chill for 20 minutes.
4. Roll the cookie dough into 24 small spheres, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently press your thumb into the center of each sphere to make a well. Cut off a small piece of the corner of the filling bag, and pipe the filling into each well.
5. Bake at 180°C for 7-9 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
