I hit the road running in early October and started my Christmas Cookie baking. My large upright freezer has been stocked for weeks! So I had to take a pause until I could clear some more room in all my other freezers. 🙁 These easy Gingerbread cookies were some of the first cookies I made. I used a Gingerbread Cake Mix to make this recipe, and overall, they’re really easy to make. The hardest thing is finding REAL white chocolate chips! In the Dallas Metroplex, Kroger’s private selection and Trader Joe’s are the only stores that carry REAL white chocolate chips. Other stores carry vanilla chips or premiere white baking chips but there’s no chocolate in the ingredients.

If you want a simple recipe to bake up for your children’s holiday parties, or to take to tailgating parties, potlucks or office parties, these little jewels are irresistible–especially if you enjoy Gingerbread!

Gingerbread White Chocolate Cookie Cups are a scrumptious treat for holiday baking.

This simple recipe uses only 5 ingredients!

Baking these treats in miniature muffin pans is a great way to make holiday goodies.

You’ll be drooling over every bite!

Here’s what I did.

I used these ingredients.

Pour Gingerbread cake mix into a mixing bowl. Add eggs and flour.

Add oil and stir.

Add REAL white chocolate chips, NOT vanilla chips or premiere white baking chips.

Stir ingredients to combine. Spoon cookie mixture into miniature muffin tins that have been well-coated with cooking spray.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. Rotate muffin pans on oven racks after 10 minutes of baking time.

Allow cookie cups to cool in pans completely before removing to serving platters.

Gingerbread White Chocolate Cookie Cups are great packed up as Christmas treats for friends and neighbors.

You’ll be drooling over every bite!

Real white chocolate chips fill every bite!

Here’s the recipe.

Equipment

1 24-tin miniature muffin pan
1 large mixing bowl
1 whisk
1 wooden spoon
measuring spoons
measuring cups

Ingredients

14.25 oz. box Gingerbread cake mix
1 1/2 to 2 tbsp. unbleached all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
1 tbsp. canola oil or avocado oil
2 large eggs
1 cup white chocolate chips NOT vanilla chips or premiere white baking chips

Instructions

Combine cake mix, flour, oil and eggs.
Stir in white chocolate chips.
Spray miniature muffin tins with cooking spray.
Spoon cookie dough into sprayed muffin tins, mounding up over the top.
Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until done.
Rotate muffin cups on oven racks half way through baking time.

Notes

NOTE: You can also roll the cookie dough into balls and place the balls in the sprayed miniature muffin tins.

NOTE: Be sure to use true white chocolate chips. Most stores only carry white or vanilla chips. They are not the same. In the Dallas area the only two stores that carry white chocolate chips are Kroger and Trader Joe’s.

NOTE: When making multiple batches at a time, I used 2 tbsp. flour.
