Oh my....talk about super rich! :) I did like them though. The thing is, because of another readers comment, I used unsweetend short crust pastry instead of cookie dough and they were still very rich! LOL! I couldn't eat more than 1, but what I did eat, I enjoyed. I recommend using a simple not-so-sweet cookie dough for the cups (or short crust pastry like I did)and only use a little of the cream cheese mixture in each cup. That way, it'll be just right! Great idea you have here shapeweaver!

I served this 10* worthy recipe as dessert for a brunch to honor my FIL who will soon be 80 yrs old & it was a huge hit! I have not seen packaged cookie dough here in Iceland, so I made my own using recipe #176115 by Forgiven for the cookie dough. I also do not have mini-muffin tins, so I used my mini-bundt baking form, sprayed it generously w/PAM & then filled the centre hole w/the chocolate cream after they were fully cooled & removed from the form. The outcome looked & tasted divine! This is a definite keeper for me, so thx for sharing this recipe. Yum!

These were absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe exactly with wonderful results. I had a problem with 4 of my cookie cups sticking to my mini muffin pan, but I didnt have any problems with the others (weird!). But these were a hit at Christmas Eve dinner, everyone was raving about them! I think next time I might try the other reviewer's suggestion of toffee bits on top. Mmmm! Thanks for posting such a delicious and pleasing recipe. I will DEFINITELY be making these again!
