Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips for shells
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour heat-treated*
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Prepare Chocolate Shells:

  • Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Spoon about 1 tablespoon into each mini muffin cup and spread up the sides to form a shell. Chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to set.

Make Cookie Dough:

  • In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until creamy. Add vanilla extract and mix well. Gradually add heat-treated flour and salt, mixing until combined. Stir in mini chocolate chips.

Fill the Cups:

  • Remove chocolate shells from the fridge. Spoon cookie dough into each chocolate cup, filling almost to the top.

Top with Chocolate:

  • Melt remaining chocolate chips and spoon a thin layer over each filled cup to seal the cookie dough inside. Chill for at least 1 hour until fully set.

Serve:

  • Carefully remove cookie dough cups from the muffin tin and enjoy!

Notes

  • Make Ahead: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Flour Safety: Always heat-treat flour to avoid risks from raw flour.
  • Variation: Use peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips instead of mini chocolate chips.
  • Serving Suggestion: Serve chilled for a cool, creamy texture.
  • Gift Idea: These cups make great homemade gifts for holidays or parties.
