WHITE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER MOUSSE SUGAR COOKIE CUPS
These are SO oversimplified to create and can be assembled and waiting to go in under 30 proceedings. Positive how cute are these to bring to a summer party or holiday? Perfect starboard!
The cornerstone is a no-chill, acicular sweeten cooky dough. The dough gets made and then rolled into dinky balls to get baked in a miniature gem tin.
Erstwhile the cookies are sunbaked and chilled, they get filled with a tasteful kid butter groom.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 recipe sugar cookie dough
- 5 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup + 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- ¾ cup white chocolate wonderful peanut butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, separated
- 1 chocolate bar, optional
INSTRUCTIONS
- Follow the recipe directions to prepare the sugar cookie dough.

- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the tops are lightly browned.
- Remove and press the centers down deeply with a teaspoon measuring spoon. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes and then gently twist the top until the cookie comes out. (Check out the post for more tips on how to successfully remove the sugar cookie cups).
- While the cookies are cooking, beat the heavy whipping cream and 1 tablespoon powdered sugar until soft peaks form and then set aside.
- In another bowl, beat together the white chocolate peanut butter, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Beat in the powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Using a spatula, fold in the whipped cream gently.
- Transfer the mixture into a frosting bag that has been fitted with a star tip.

- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
