Description
A delightful recipe for buttery ganache cookie cups that are perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough into each muffin cup, pressing it down slightly to form a cup shape.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cookie cups are cooling, prepare the ganache by heating the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
- Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Once the cookie cups are cooled, fill each cup with the chocolate ganache. Allow the ganache to set for about 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
- You can also add a pinch of sea salt on top of the ganache for a sweet and salty contrast.
