Ingredients List
- 1 (16 ounce) package sugar cookie dough (or use your favorite sugar cookie recipe)
- 1 (8 ounce) container strawberry cream cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon strawberry extract
- 1 (12 ounce) package white chocolate chips red and white sprinkles and/or chocolate/strawberry swirl hearts for garnish (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Lightly spray 12 muffin cups with nonstick baking spray.
Divide cookie dough into 12 portions. Press each portion into a muffin cup, flattening it on the bottom and about 3/4 of the way up the sides of the cup.
Bake for about 14-15 minutes until golden brown on the edges. Do not under-bake, or the cups will not stay together when you remove them from the muffin tin.
Meanwhile, place the cream cheese in a bowl and mix with a hand mixer on high for about a minute. Add the strawberry extract and mix until thoroughly combined.
Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave on 50% power. Start with 1 minute, then stir, then microwave for an additional 15-30 seconds at a time until completely melted and smooth.
Add the white chocolate to the cream cheese and mix until combined.
When the cookie cups are completely cooled, carefully remove them from the muffin tin.
Spoon in the cream cheese mixture, garnish with sprinkles and a chocolate heart and serve.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
