Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tube (16.5 oz) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 24 soft caramels, unwrapped
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin pan well.
- Cut cookie dough into 24 equal pieces and press each piece into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup to form a cup shape.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown. If needed, use the back of a spoon to press centers down to maintain the cup shape.
- While cookies bake, melt caramels and heavy cream together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Let cookie cups cool slightly, then spoon melted caramel into each cup. Top with chopped pecans.
- Melt chocolate chips and vegetable oil together until smooth. Drizzle over the tops of the cookie cups.
- Let chocolate set before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use parchment or nonstick spray generously to help remove cookie cups easily.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Try using dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
