Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 batch of your favorite cookie dough (about 2 cups)
Filling
- 8 oz mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Cups: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Press portions of cookie dough evenly into the cups of a muffin tin to form a cup shape with a hollow center. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and set. Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan.
- Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently stir in the cooled brewed coffee to infuse the mixture with rich flavor.
- Fill the Cookie Cups: Using a spoon or piping bag, carefully fill the cooled cookie cups with the mascarpone and coffee mixture.
- Chill: Place the filled cookie cups in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour to allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
- Serve: Once chilled, serve the tiramisu cookie cups as a delightful individual dessert. Optionally, dust with cocoa powder or garnish with chocolate shavings before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the cookie cups are completely cooled before filling to prevent the mascarpone from melting.
- You can use espresso or instant coffee dissolved in a small amount of hot water for a stronger coffee flavor.
- For added texture, sprinkle some crushed ladyfingers or finely chopped nuts into the filling.
- These cookie cups can be prepared a day in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator.
