Description
Irresistible 2 ingredient cookie cups deliver pure dessert magic with minimal effort. Sweet simplicity meets delightful indulgence, creating a quick treat perfect for snatching moments of blissful satisfaction.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 roll (16 oz / 450 g) refrigerated cookie dough (chocolate chip, sugar, or peanut butter)
- 12 mini peanut butter cups (or chocolate squares, jam, or caramel)
Instructions
- Preparation: Warm the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a mini muffin tin by lightly greasing or lining with cupcake papers.
- Shaping: Divide cookie dough into 12 uniform spheres, carefully positioning each ball into a muffin cavity. Gently compress the center of each dough ball to create a subtle hollow for future filling.
- Baking & Finishing: Roast the cookie cups for 10-12 minutes until they achieve a golden-amber hue. Immediately after removing from the oven, nestle a mini peanut butter cup into the center of each warm cookie cup. Allow the treats to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack, ensuring they set properly and maintain their delicate cup-like structure.
Notes
- Generously grease muffin tin or use non-stick silicone liners to ensure easy cookie removal without breaking.
- Use the back of a rounded measuring spoon or your thumb to gently press center of cookie dough, creating uniform and deep wells for fillings.
- Ovens vary, so check cookies at 9 minutes to avoid burning; golden edges indicate perfect doneness without becoming too crisp.
- Allow cookies to cool slightly before adding chocolate or peanut butter cups, preventing immediate melting while ensuring filling sets smoothly.
