GINGERBREAD CHEESECAKE COOKIE CUPS BY JASMINE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar with an electric hand mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg, molasses, and vanilla, and beat until combined, 2 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and baking soda.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, one-third at a time, and mix until just combined. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 45-60 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
• Divide the cookie dough into 12 equal portions and roll into balls. Press a dough ball into the bottom of each prepared muffin cup, pressing against the bottom and up the sides. Freeze for 10-15 minutes, until solid.
• Bake the cookie cups for 10-12 minutes, or until baked through. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the cheesecake filling: In a medium bowl, whip together the cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla, powdered sugar, brown sugar, ginger, and cinnamon with an electric hand mixer until smooth, about 5 minutes. Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with your tip of choice and refrigerate for about 10 minutes.
• Fill the cookie cups with the cheesecake filling. Garnish with holiday sprinkles and/or a sprinkle of cinnamon and/or white chocolate shavings. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!
