Milk and Cookie Cups
We all know Santa is a busy guy, so why not streamline the milk and cookie consumption process and make him some milk and cookie cups he can take on the go!
Recipe
Makes 12 cookie cups
Ingredients
8 ounces dark or semi-sweet chocolate
1 tsp coconut oil (optional)
Milk of choice
Instructions
Make cookie dough as directed in the recipe, but do not chill.
Fill the cavity of the cookie cup mold (can also use a popover pan or mini muffin tin) about 2/3rds full with cookie dough. Make sure the cookie dough is evenly distributed in the cavity. use the insert (or a shot glass) to press the dough down into the bottom and up the sides.
Remove any extra dough the comes up over the edge with a small knife and your fingers.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cookie that has risen up at the top is slightly golden brown.
Let cool completely (about 15 minutes) before removing from the mold.
Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in the microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring in between each interval until completely melted. Mix in the coconut oil.
Use a small spoon to spoon about 1 tsp of chocolate into the bottom of the cup, then spread it up the sides with the back of the spoon.
Let the cookie rest upside down on a wire cooling rack over a piece of parchment, foil, or paper towel to drain any extra chocolate.
Once the chocolate has hardened (can expedite this process by placing the cookies in the fridge for up to 20 minutes), you can fill with your milk of choice or save n an airtight container until ready to eat!
