Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Cookies

In the bowl of your stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter on medium-high speed until light and creamy. Add cream cheese to the butter and mix until smooth and creamy. Scrape down sides of the bowl as needed to ensure butter and cream cheese are incorporated. Add both sugars and mix on medium-high until mixture is light and fluffy.

Add egg and beat into mixture until fully incorporated. Add vanilla extract and mix. On low speed, slowly adding flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Mix until just incorporated. Add chocolate chips and mix on low until just combined.

Remove bowl from mixer and ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated. Place dough in an air tight container and refrigerate overnight or freeze.

After dough has chilled, preheat oven to 350-degrees. Line cookie sheets with Silpat or parchment paper. Use a standard sized cookie scoop to scoop dough balls onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake cookies in 350-degree oven for 9-11 minutes.

Let baked cookies set on cookie sheet for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
