This recipe happened when I saw something like this on the gram and didn’t want to bake up a whole darn batch of 24 cookie cups 🤷♀️
I get bored with dessert, I’d so much rather have a diff dessert to look forward to every single day.
If you’re like me, come make these, enjoy, move on! They are so darn easy.
Please be sure to let me know how they were.
In my humble opinion, they were absolutely perfect!
Pro-tip: If you use oat flour, then baking these is completely optional! You can freeze them to set and enjoy cold, chocolate stuffed cookie dough style!
Mini-batch Chocolate Stuffed Cookie Cups
Servings: 4 cookie cups
Calories: 116kcal
Equipment
- Muffin pan I used a mini muffin pan, see notes for regular sized.
Ingredients
Cookie dough
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted (15 g) sub (plant) butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (21 g)
- 1 tbsp nut/seed butter (16 g)
- drop of vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup flour (30 g) gf all purpose or oat flour if desired
- 1/4 tsp baking powder omit if skipping baking
Chocolate Filling
- 2 tsp nut/seed butter (10 g)
- 1 tsp maple syrup (7 g)
- 1/2 tsp cocoa powder
Instructions
- Combine the chocolate filling ingredients, set aside. If it seems too dry to spread, add a drop of water or more maple syrup.
- Preheat oven to 350F and grease or line your muffin pan.
- In a small bowl add coconut oil, microwave to melt. Add maple syrup, nut butter, vanilla, salt and mix until blended.
- Add flour, baking powder and mix to combine into cookie dough. If too dry and crumbly, add a drop or two of water.
- Add 1 heaping tsp cookie dough into each muffin cavity, top with 1 tsp chocolate filling, top with one more heaping tsp cookie dough to cover.
- (Optional) sprinkle with some chocolate chips.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until the edges are slightly golden brown. Cool and enjoy!
Notes
- Use 1 tbsp any chocolate spread (like nutella) instead of making your own if you prefer.
- These are sweet enough for snacks. If you want to make dessert out of this, add 1 tbsp sugar (or other granulated sweetener) to the cookie dough.
- You can use a regular muffin pan and make 2-3 large cookie cups out of this recipe. Baking time will be roughly the same.
- As I said, use oat flour and freeze these to set and avoid turning on the oven, they will be amazing!
