Cookie Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Liberally spray a 24-cup nonstick miniature muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, then sprinkle each cup with a touch of flour. Shake the muffin tin so that the flour completely coats each cup, then shake out any excess. Set aside.
• Combine the hazelnuts, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse until the hazelnuts are finely ground. Add the flour and pulse until completely combined. Add the butter and pulse until the butter is finely chopped and the mixture begins to come together, then add the vanilla and egg and pulse until a dough forms. Use a rubber spatula to transfer the dough to a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and place a large baking sheet on the rack. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Divide the dough evenly among the prepared muffin cups (about 1 scant tablespoon each), then use your fingers or the back of a small spoon to flatten the dough in each cup, coming slightly up the sides. Gently press a chocolate hazelnut truffle into the center of each piece of dough (the dough will come up the sides of the truffles but should not come up over the edges of the muffin cups).
• Slide the muffin tin onto the preheated baking sheet, and bake, rotating the baking sheet once halfway through, until the cookies are light golden brown around the edges, about 25 minutes.
• Allow the cookies to cool completely in the muffin tin set on a cooling rack.
• Use a small offset spatula or butter knife to gently coax each cookie out of its cup, then place the cookies on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
• Put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted, about 1 minute total. Transfer the melted chocolate to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag. Snip off the corner of the bag and drizzle the chocolate back and forth over the top of the cookies. Allow the topping to cool completely before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F and paper-line 24 mini-muffin cups.
• Divide the cookie dough into 24 equal parts. Place a portion of cookie dough in the muffin cups and press it down as well as around the edges to cover the muffin cup.
• Bake them from 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are set. Cool the muffin cups on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove the cookie cups from the paper-line and cool them on the wire rack. The cookie cups should be at room temperature to proceed further.
• Microwave morsels in small, microwave safe or heave duty plastic bag on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 30 seconds; without removing from the bag knead until smooth. Microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, kneading until smooth [do not remove from bag]. Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze chocolate into each cup.
• Love peanut butter? You can add couple of tablespoon of peanut butter in the chocolate mixture for the nutty taste!

Steps:

• Crush 15 of the cookies into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter, then mix to combine. Press some of the crumbs into each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan. Set aside.
• Break up 6 more of the cookies into chunks. Mix the softened ice cream with the broken-up cookies. Spoon some of the ice cream mixture into each cup of the muffin pan. Crush the remaining 2 to 3 cookies into crumbs and sprinkle over the cups.
• Freeze until firm, then remove from the muffin pan and place in resealable plastic bags or other airtight containers.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Divide dough into sixteen 2-tablespoon portions. Place 12 portions into the prepared muffin tin and press into the bottom and about halfway up each cup. Reserve remaining 4 portions of dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 9 minutes. Remove from the oven and lightly press down in the center with the large end of a wooden spoon or a shot glass to form a cup shape. Return to oven and bake until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes more. Remove from the oven and press the center down gently as before. Allow to cool completely in the pan, about 15 minutes, before removing with a small offset spatula or knife.
• Repeat process with remaining 4 cookie dough portions.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Roll cookie dough into 24 (1-inch) balls; place in 24 mini muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray. Bake 8 to 10 min. or until lightly browned.
• Cool cookie cups in pans 10 min. Run knife around cups to loosen; remove cups to wire racks. Cool completely.
• Beat pudding mix and milk with whisk 2 min. Let stand 5 min. Spoon into cookie cups; top with strawberries. Refrigerate 15 min.

Steps:

• Cut cookie dough in half (save 1 portion for another use). With floured hands, press about 1 tablespoon of dough onto the bottom and up the sides of 12 ungreased miniature muffin cups. Bake at 350° until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes. , Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, reshape the puffed cookie cups. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely., In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar. Spoon into cookie cups. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Beat together margarine/butter and both sugars
• Add egg and beat again
• Fold in the flour and milk choc chips
• Take spoonsful of the mixture and add to the muffin tin
• Bake in preheated oven, 160/175 degree oven until raised and brown
• Take out of the oven and immediately make an indentation in each one, I used the base of an egg cup, but a shot glass would work just as well
• Spoon in nutella and leave to cool

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the butter, sugars and vanilla into a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg. Add the flour, bicarb and a pinch of salt, and mix everything together with a spatula.
• Break off golf-ball-sized lumps of dough (about 65g each) and press into the holes of a 12-hole muffin tin, ensuring it comes up the sides - if you're using a deep muffin tin, the dough should come about halfway up the side of each hole. Bake for 15 mins until golden. The dough will sink as it bakes, so leave until cool enough to handle, then press it up the sides of the holes again. Leave to cool completely.
• Break the chocolate into a heatproof bowl and melt until smooth in the microwave in 20-second bursts, or set over a pan of barely simmering water ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water. Remove the cookie cups from the tin (you may need a cutlery knife to help you do this). Spoon 1 tsp nut butter into the centre of each, then cover with the melted chocolate. Leave to cool until the chocolate sets, about 1 hr. Will keep in an airtight container for up to five days.

Steps:

• Make the panna cotta filling:.
• Pour the water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin powder over this and set aside to bloom for 5 minutes.
• In a medium pot, add the milk and sugar. Heat over a medium heat whilst stirring until gently steaming. Turn the heat down to low and pour in the gelatin mixture, stir together until the gelatin has melted inches.
• Remove from the heat and pour in the heavy cream.
• Strain into a bowl resting in an ice bath. Let sit for 1-2 hours cool, stirring occasionally, until thick but still pourable. (If it isn't thickening, chill in the fridge for 30-60 minutes to speed it up).
• While the panna cotta filling chills, make the cookie cups:.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a non-stick 24-cup mini muffin pan with oil or cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until smooth. Add the egg, vanilla, salt and baking powder, mix to combine.
• Add the flour and stir to get a thick dough. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
• Divide the dough between the wells in the muffin tin - you should be using about 1 level tablespoon of dough for each well.
• Use your fingertips to press the cookie dough in each well into a cup shape.
• Place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
• Bake for 10 minutes - the cookie dough should still be a bit soft in the centre but the edges should be starting to set. They may rise and lose some of their 'cup' shape, this is okay!
• While the cookies are still soft, use the end of a wooden spoon (or the end of a pestle from a pestle & mortar) to push a large indent back into the centre of each cup.
• Return to the oven for an additional 3 minutes.
• Let cool in the pan for a few minutes then remove from the pan using a small spatula or butter knife. Place into a wire rack to cool completely.
• Fill the cups:.
• Transfer the thickened, pourable panna cotta filling to a jug.
• Fill the cooled cookie cups with the panna cotta filling up to the brim.
• Place onto a tray or large plate and transfer to the fridge to chill for at least an hour until the panna cotta has completely set.
• Store in the fridge.
