Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes).

Add eggs one at a time and vanilla extract, mixing until just combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips evenly into the dough.

Beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla until creamy for the cheesecake filling.

Scoop a tablespoon of dough, flatten it, add a teaspoon of cheesecake filling, then cover with another tablespoon of dough.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
