CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE CUPS WITH CHEESECAKE FILLING

Who’s a fan of the cookie cup?  I DEFINITELY am.  They’re versatile, cute and can be filled with all kinds of deliciousness.  Not to mention easy to make! They look hard to pull together, but really it’s not any harder than baking cookies.  These Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups with Cheesecake Filling are simply amazing and worth trying if you haven’t made them before.

And don’t even getting started on the cheesecake filling.  Cheesecake is one of my all-time favorite desserts, after the all-american classic chocolate chip cookie, so mixing the two….wow, just wow! I could eat just a bowl of cheesecake filling and be happy…well, I may have actually done that, but don’t tell anyone 🙂

Making the actually cookie cup is part of the fun.  You put the cookie dough in a mini cupcake pan. Bake. Then, you use your fingers or a spoon to depress the middle once they come out of the oven and have cooled for a little bit.
