I received a W-2C from my employer for 2020 indicating that the Social Security Tax Withheld was $3,515 instead of previously reported $2347. What is the TurboTax option in the desktop app that I have to click to amend this? I've looked everywhere for a "Social Security Tax" option but I see nothing =/

No you don't need to amend for the Social Security tax.  Unless it increased and you have more than 1 employer and together they went over the max.  The max for 2020 is $8,537.40 per person.   Or if you claimed excess Social Security and they reduced the ss tax.  Or if you have self employment income and paid SE tax on it.
