Cookie Cups Recipe – How To Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups
If you don’t want to make your own cookies, you don’t HAVE TO! That’s the beauty of this one. You can actually use store-bought cookies and be lazy like me. YAHOO!
Most of the time, I really don’t have time to whip up a fresh batch of cookies on the fly. So, I usually just rip open a container of whatever kind of cookie I have on hand. And you know what?
God hasn’t struck me down yet. I am still here to serve you all and to be a mom to my kids. You will be forgiven if you are having a crazy week. Only you and me will know. I promise. 🙂
But no matter what you do, you still have to melt the chocolate. There is no getting around that part.
Cookie Cups Ingredients:
- 1 14oz can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2/ stick of butter — make sure it is room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups of chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup of shortening
- Melting chocolate
Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups Directions:
Preheat oven 350 degrees.
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, condensed milk, and butter into a large bowl until combined. Mix in your shortening and fold in your chocolate chips.
Turn a muffin tin upside down and mold the mixture into cups or simply use your hands to create the small cups. Bake for 22 minutes. Allow to cool.
Meanwhile, melt your chocolate by mixing every 15 seconds until smooth. You can use a microwave or you can put water in a pot and then a bowl on top of the pot. Place the chocolate in the bowl and stir over medium-low heat.
Spoon into your cup and cover the sides and top rim with chocolate. Let cool and harden.
You can now have your cookies and milk at the same time in one bite!

What do you think about this recipe? Want to give it a try? Do you think your kids will love cookie cups? I have a feeling they will!
By the way, this recipe is also known as cookie shot glasses or cookie shot if you want to serve them to adults and are on a hunt for a more grown-up name. 🙂 But I think I would still serve my cookie shot glasses with milk inside!
