Ingredients:

Cookie Cup:

• 1 box yellow cake mix
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup butter, softened

Homemade Whipped Cream:

• 1 (3.25 oz.) pkg. instant vanilla pudding
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup milk

Chocolate Ganache:

• 2 tbsp semi-sweet baking chips
• 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream

Instructions:

Cookie Cups:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare a mini muffin pan by spraying each cup with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk the yellow cake mix to remove any lumps. Add softened butter and eggs, combining with a hand mixer until the dough is thick and sticky.
3. Using a small cookie scoop, place a mound of dough into each muffin cup. Press down to create a level cookie.
4. Bake for 9-11 minutes. After baking, immediately use an offset spatula or knife to release each cookie from the pan. Once cooled, create an indentation in the middle of each cookie for the cream. Let them cool completely on a cooling rack.

Vanilla Cream:

1. In a medium bowl, combine instant vanilla pudding mix, heavy cream, and milk. Mix until the mixture is thick and forms stiff peaks.
2. Transfer the vanilla cream to a pastry bag and pipe a generous amount into each cookie indentation.

Chocolate Ganache:

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine heavy cream and chocolate chips. Microwave for 20 seconds and whisk until smooth. If not smooth, continue heating in 10-second increments until desired consistency is achieved.
2. Spoon a small amount of ganache onto the top of each filled cookie cup. Refrigerate until the ganache is set.

Serving:

• Serve chilled. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
