-1 roll of cookie dough fills about 8 or so large muffin cups or 24 small ones.

- It's easiest to cut the cookie dough in equal pieces, then roll each piece into a ball and flatten in your hand. Then you form a cup in your preferred size of muffin tin.

-I then make a mixture of brown sugar and oats. No need to measure here. I'd say maybe 1 cup of each?

-You then fill up the dough cups with a little of the oat mixture. I filled maybe 1/4 of the cup up, but next time I think I would fill it up 1/2 way.

-Then comes the chocolate chips. You could even use white chocolate chips or I guess. Use whatever you want! Split up the chips into equal parts and sprinkle on top of the dough cups.

-OK now is baking time. I suggest baking the cookie cups at a temperature lower than what the package says. This will make sure the cookie is baked throughout rather than a crispy shell. Bake until they look and feel done. They might be a little puffy, but you can take a spoon and flatten the sides down so it looks like a cup again.

When done, pull them from the oven and let them sit for awhile in the pan. Then take them out of the pan to cool completelyl, or you might have a dozen leaky cookie cups on your hands.

Make sure your cookie cup has completely cooled and top with your preferred ice cream and toppings.

The minis would be adorable for a dinner party. Make a few different kinds: sugar, chocolate chip and peanut butter all with different ice cream flavors. You can prepare the cookie cups ahead of time. Harden the cookie bowls in the freezer before serving, so it doesn't become a sloppy mess! Include the three different minis on the same plate and it would look gorgeous!
