This irresistible cookie dough cups delight is the perfect way to end any meal. Made with (226g) unsalted butter, ¾ cup (150g) brown sugar, and ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar, it's a sweet treat that will satisfy any dessert craving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup (150g) brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups (270g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Mini chocolate chips or crushed cookies (for topping)
- Caramel or ganache (for filling)
- Sprinkles or frosting (for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the dough into each muffin cup, pressing the dough slightly up the sides to form a cup shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove the muffin tin from the oven and immediately press the centers down with a spoon to reinforce the cup shape.
- Allow the cups to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Fill or decorate the cookie dough cups as desired before serving.
