Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Cups:
    • Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Grease a muffin tin or line with paper liners.
    • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
    • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined.
    • Divide the dough evenly into the muffin tin, pressing it up the sides to form a cup shape. Bake for 10โ€“12 minutes.
    • Remove from the oven and use the back of a spoon to gently press down the centers. Let cool completely.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling:
    • In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract and mix.
    • Gradually beat in the heavy cream until thick and fluffy. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
  3. Assemble the Cookie Cups:
    • Once the cookie cups are completely cool, spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into the centers.
    • Garnish with fresh strawberry slices or chocolate shavings if desired.
  4. Chill and Serve:
    • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the filling to set. Enjoy!
