Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cup all purpose flour

For the cheesecake filling

  • 8 oz softened cream cheese
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter and sugar together with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

  5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before shaping into cookie cups.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F
  7. Grease a muffin or tart tin and press 1-2 tbsp of chilled cookie dough into each indentation and press to shape into a cup shape (along the bottom and sides of the indentation).
  8. When each muffin tin is full, bake the cookie cups for 8-12 minutes (will vary depending on the size of your tin).
  9. Allow the cookie cups to cool in the muffin tray before removing.
  10. For the cheesecake filling, mix together the vanilla, cream cheese and whipped cream until fully combined.
