How to Make Cream Cheese Cookie Cups

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Press one (1) refrigerated sugar cookie dough (about 1.75 oz) into each of 12 ungreased muffin cups.
  3. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  4. Gently reshape any puffed cookie cups using the end of a wooden spoon handle.
  5. In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy.
  6. Carefully pour approximately 3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into each baked cookie cup.
  7. Bake for an additional 15-18 minutes, or until the filling is set and no longer jiggles.
  8. Let the cookie cups cool completely in the muffin tin on a wire rack.
  9. Top with your favorite pie filling (e.g., strawberry, blueberry, cherry) or a fresh strawberry slice.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the filling to fully chill before serving.
