Equipment

Mixing bowl
Electric mixer for blending dough
Mini muffin tin for baking cookie cups
Oven preheated to 350°F
Cookie scoop for portioning dough
Measuring cups for accurate ingredient measurements

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar packed
1 large egg room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
1 cup filling of choice such as chocolate ganache, whipped cream, or fruit preserves

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, beat together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips.
Scoop dough into the greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Press down slightly to form a cup shape.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden brown. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes, then use a spoon to press the centers down to maintain the cup shape.
Once cooled, fill each cookie cup with your desired filling such as chocolate ganache, whipped cream, or fruit preserves.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Notes

Optional Equipment: A melon baller can help create perfect wells for the filling.
Customization: Swap chocolate chips for white chocolate or add sprinkles for a festive touch.
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Serving Tip: Best enjoyed fresh but can be filled and stored in the refrigerator for a cool treat.
