We turned regular sugar cookie mix into a graham-cookie dough, then baked in muffin tins to form mini crusts. Genius, right? Next, add a dollop of creamy vanilla cheesecake, and top with fresh strawberries for a cookie creation no one will see coming. Recipe by Tablespoon.com.

Ingredients

  • 1 pouch Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix

  • 1 package (250 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg

    In large bowl, mix Cookie Base ingredients with spoon until soft dough forms. Using rounded tablespoonful of dough, shape dough into 24 (1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch) balls; place in muffin cups. With thumb, make indentation in centre of each. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until light golden.

    Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until center is set. Cool 10 minutes in pan on cooling rack. Run knife around edge of each cookie cup to loosen. Cool completely in pan, about 30 minutes. Remove cookie cups from muffin cups. Refrigerate 1 hour.

    When ready to serve, top each cookie with 1 heaping teaspoon chopped strawberries. Store covered in refrigerator.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    To quickly soften cream cheese, remove from wrapper, and place on microwavable plate; microwave uncovered on High about 15 seconds or just until softened.
  • Tip 2
    Don’t have enough muffin pans? Refrigerate the rest of the dough while baking the first batch. Cool pan about 10 minutes, then bake the rest of the dough, adding 1 to 2 minutes to bake time.
