Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups:
- ¾ cup unsalted butter , room temperature (170 grams)
- 1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar (215 grams)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (100 grams)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- ½ cup unsalted butter , room temperature (113 grams)
- ¾ cup packed light or dark brown sugar (160 grams)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup all-purpose flour , see Note(60 grams)
- ½ teaspoon coarse salt
- 1/4-1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (60-125 ml)
- ½ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips (112 grams)
Instructions
Make the cookie cups:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a mini muffin pan.
- With an electric mixer, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, 2-3 minutes. Mix in the egg, then the vanilla. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until combined. Add the mini chocolate chips.
- Fill mini muffin pan cups half full. Bake until edges are golden but center is still soft, about 12-14 minutes. Let cool in the pan about 5 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
Make the frosting:
- With an electric mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy, 2-3 minutes. Mix in vanilla. Mix in flour and salt. Add 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream and beat until smooth. If frosting is still too thick, add more cream 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. Stir in mini chocolate chips.
- Top cookie cups with the frosting and sprinkle additional mini chocolate chips on top, if desired.
Notes
NOTE:
- If you are concerned about consuming raw flour, you can toast it first before adding it to the frosting. Cook in a skillet over medium heat, whisking constantly, for about 6-8 minutes until lightly toasted. Let cool before using.
