Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups ~ submitted by Andrea W. of Cedar City, Utah~
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup margarine
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 small instant vanilla pudding
2 eggs
1 package chocolate chips
Mix flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream margarine, sugars, pudding mix and vanilla. Beat until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs.
Add flour mixture. Add chocolate chips. Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a flat disk and wrap in plastic. Chill the dough in refrigerator for at least
2 hours. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Turn a 12 cup muffin tin bottom side up and cover every other cup with squares of aluminum foil. Spray the foil with cooking spray.
Unwrap 1 disk of dough and place inbetween 2 sheets of waxed paper, and roll it out to 1/8 inch thickness. Using a 3" round cookie cutter, cut out circles of dough and
place each one over a cup bottom, smoothing out any cracks. Bake the cookie cups for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly brown. Let them cool for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and
cookies together from the muffin pan. Peel off the foil and let the cups cool completely on a rack. Just before serving, fill each cookie cup with a scoop of ice cream.
