Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups

We buy these wonderful mint fudge flavored baking chunks regularly at Walmart. They are terrific to use in Tea Cakes, cookies, brownies, brownie cups, muffins and all things sweet (including gluten free goodies)! They were certainly wonderful in these Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups. These cookie cups start with one of my favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie recipes but I swapped out mint fudge flavored baking chunks for the chocolate chips instead.

I made these back in December for one of our Wednesday night youth group functions at church. I heard back that they were very well received. I try to make a lot of things that I know they’ll eat, rather than try out a lot of new stuff on the kids. But I took a chance with these jewels and was glad I did.

If you enjoy the flavors of mint and chocolate, these baking chunks have a very light essence of mint so the flavor doesn’t overwhelm or overpower the chocolate. I have some neighbors that beg me for anything I make with these baking chunks! They just gobble them up. 🙂

Give Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups a try the next time you want a chocolate treat.

Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups are awesome!

These substantial cookies are loaded with chocolate.

The mint very subtly flavors the cookie so it doesn’t overwhelm or overpower the chocolate.

Chocolate and mint pair so wonderfully together!

Here’s what I did.

I used these ingredients. I purchase the Mint Fudge Flavored Baking Chunks at our local Walmart.

Soften butter and place in a large mixing bowl with granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, pure vanilla extract, baking soda and salt.

Mix with a electric mixer until smooth.

Add unbleached all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods). Add 2 packages of mint fudge flavored baking chunks.

Stir ingredients about 3-5 minutes until very well combined.

Spray regular-sized muffin tins with cooking spray. Scoop cookie dough with a large 1/4 cup cookie scoop. For miniature muffin tins, use a small cookie scoop.

Place a full cookie scoop of dough into each muffin tin.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Allow cookie cups to cool completely before removing from muffin tins. Cookie cups will sink slightly in the middle while cooling.

Load Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups on a tray and serve!

These sweet treats are terrific for Backyard Barbecues and tailgating parties.

You will certainly get your chocolate fix with a batch of Mint Chocolate Fudge Cookie Cups! 🙂
