How to Make Chocolate Cream Cheese Filled Cookie Cups

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  7. Roll dough into 24 equal-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
  8. Press each dough ball into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased mini muffin tin.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. While the cookie cups cool, prepare the cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
  12. Beat in the cocoa powder and milk until light and fluffy.
  13. Once the cookie cups are completely cool, fill each cup generously with the chocolate cream cheese filling.
  14. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
