How to make Peaches & Cream Cookies
Preparation
Before beginning the process of making these delicious peach-filled cookie cups, it is important to have all necessary ingredients and tools ready. This includes a mini muffin tin, non-stick cooking spray, a hand mixer, measuring spoons, and a cookie scoop. It is also important to preheat the oven to 325° F and spray the mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the cookies from sticking.
Mixing the Cookie Dough
To create the cookie dough, start by creaming together 1 cup of sugar and ½ cup of softened butter using a hand mixer. Then, add in 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mix again, and add ⅓ cup of sour cream, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of baking soda. Lastly, add in 2 cups of flour and beat until smooth.
Baking Process
Using a cookie scoop, scoop out 1 tablespoon of dough into each muffin cup. This should yield approximately 24 cookie cups, plus 6 additional cookies. Bake the cookie cups in the preheated oven for 17-18 minutes. After taking them out of the oven, let the cookies stand for 1-2 minutes before shaping them.
Shaping the Cookies
To shape the cookies, spray the round side of a 1 teaspoon measuring spoon with non-stick spray and press down into the center of each cookie to create a well. Let them cool completely, or stick the pan in the freezer for 20 minutes to speed up the process. Once the cookies are cooled, they can be taken out of the muffin tin by sliding the tip of a knife down 1 side and they should pop right out.
Filling & Topping
Spoon about 2 teaspoons of peach pie filling into each cookie cup and top with whipped cream if serving immediately. If not, cookies can be completely made and assembled up to 24 hours ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Top with cream just prior to serving. Enjoy these delicious and easy-to-make peach-filled cookie cups!
Filling and Topping
Peach Filling
To make the peach filling for these cookie cups, simply mix together 1/2 cup of peach pie filling with chopped peaches. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the mixture into each cookie cup, creating a delicious and fruity center. The combination of sweet cookie dough and tangy peach filling is a match made in heaven.
Whipped Cream Topping
For a finishing touch, top each cookie cup with a dollop of whipped cream. This adds a light and fluffy texture to the dessert, balancing out the richness of the cookie and the sweetness of the peach filling. If serving immediately, add the whipped cream just before serving. If not, store the assembled cookie cups in an airtight container in the fridge and add the whipped cream just prior to serving.
Overall, these cookie cups are a perfect dessert for any occasion. The peach filling and whipped cream topping elevate the classic sugar cookie to a whole new level, making it a unique and delicious treat.
