Directions
Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 2 regular sized muffin tins with cooking spray.
- Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, set aside.
- Beat butter and sugars on med-high until pale and fluffy (approx. 2-3mins). Reduce speed and add eggs (one at a time), and vanilla. Beat until combined.
- Add flour mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Using a large cookie scoop (3 Tbsp), scoop dough into muffin tins.
- Bake for approximately 15 mins or until lightly browned and mostly set (but not completely).
- Remove from oven and immediately use a small jar or container to press firmly down in the center to create a well. Cool in pans for 10 mins, then place on wire rack to cool completely.
Cheesecake Mousse Filling:
- Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks (ideally with a cold whisk and in a cold bowl).
- In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth, add vanilla and beat until smooth.
- Fold cream cheese mixture into whipped cream. Pipe into cooled cookie cups. Top with chocolate sauce if desired and swirl with a toothpick. Refrigerate until set (approx. 2 hours).
- Serve cold and eat within 2-3 days. Or freeze for up to 4 weeks.
