Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 F degrees. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, sugar, cream cheese and vanilla extract. Sift together the flour, wheat germ, baking soda and salt.
Step 2
Add them to the butter and sugar; mix until combined.
Step 3
Place some wheat germ in a small bowl. Using a cookie scoop, portion out the dough(about 1 1/2 Tablespoon) , form them into balls and then roll them in the wheat germ.
Step 4
Place them on the cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Make a small indentation in the middle (I use the back of a 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon) and bake for 10 minutes.Meanwhile, mix together the dried cranberries and strawberry jam.
Step 5
Remove the cookies from the oven (you may have to redo the indentation if it flattens out) and drop about 1/2 teaspoon of cranberry/jam filling into the center. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
