How to Make Cinnamon Chip Gems
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the flour and sugar, mixing until just combined. Stir in the almonds.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
- Roll each portion into 12 smooth balls (48 balls total).
- Press each ball into the bottom and up the sides of a mini muffin cup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract.
- Place about 7 cinnamon chips into each prepared dough cup.
- Fill each cup about ¾ full with the egg mixture.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are puffed and lightly golden brown.
- Let cool in the muffin tin for 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle approximately 15 cinnamon chips on top of each gem.
- Cool completely in the muffin tin or on a wire rack before serving.
