Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Cups
- 1 package Sugar Cookie Dough (typically about 16 oz)
Filling and Topping
- 1 jar Vanilla Frosting (about 15 oz)
- Sprinkles, as desired for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and lightly spray a mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Cookie Dough: Break apart the sugar cookie dough into individual squares or portions. Place one square into each muffin well, gently pressing it down to fit the shape of the well to form a cup.
- Bake Cookie Cups: Bake the cookie dough in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookie cups hold their shape.
- Cool Cookie Cups: Remove the muffin pan from the oven and allow the cookie cups to cool for 20-30 minutes, ensuring they firm up so they won’t crumble when filled.
- Fill and Decorate: Using a piping bag or a spoon, pipe or spoon vanilla frosting into each cooled cookie cup. Finish by topping each with sprinkles for a festive and colorful presentation.
Notes
- Ensure cookie cups are fully cooled before adding frosting to prevent melting.
- You can substitute frosting flavors to customize this recipe (e.g., chocolate or cream cheese frosting).
- Use festive sprinkles to match occasions or themes.
- Mini muffin pans vary in size; adjust dough quantity if necessary.
- Store cookie cups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
