My girls came up with the idea to transform one of our favorite recipes, Molten Lava Chocolate Chip Cookies, into a "cup." I think it's because you get twice the treats!
The technique below would work well with any type of thick cookie dough, such as the one we use to make Sunflower Seed Butter Cookies.
We made them vegan because my daughter is allergic to egg and milk! But, they work equally well with egg as do all our vegan cookie recipes.
How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups
Form the dough into balls about 1 ½ inches round and then press it into a greased muffin tin.
Bake for 8 minutes and remove from the oven. It will be partially cooked with a natural indentation in the middle.
Help the cup along by gently pressing the dough against the sides of the muffin tin with the back of a spoon.
Return the pan to the oven and cook for 4-6 minutes more. Allow the cookie to firm up in the pan for about 5 minutes and then remove to a cooling rack.
Variation: Use a mini muffin tin to make even smaller cups which would be perfect for mini chocolate chips!
Ways to Fill Cookie Cups
Let the good times roll! Here are some ideas:
- Candy - such as M and M's or Rolo's. For graduation parties or showers, use candy in the color scheme for the school, etc.
- Ice cream - don't forget the sprinkles!
- Marshmallows topped with a square of chocolate for an open-faced S' more.
- No-Bake Cheesecake - try the recipe from No-Bake Mini-Cheesecakes
- Pudding or Mousse
- Frosting - check out Healthy Cream Cheese Frosting
- Fudge
