Chocolate Irish Cream Cheesecake Cookie Cups

Ingredients

*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease mini muffin tin with baking spray and set aside.
Cream together butter and sugar. Add egg and vanilla extract and mix to combine.
In separate bowl, sift flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar together. Add into wet ingredients slowly until dough forms.
Roll tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place into muffin tin, creating a well with your fingers. Bake for 13-15 minutes.
As soon as cookies come out of oven, use handle of wooden spoon, back of measuring spoon or muddler and press center down, creating a well in cookie cups. Cool 10 minutes in tin then move cookies onto cooling rack to cool completely.
Prepare Cheesecake Filling: Combine cream cheese, vanilla, and granulated sugar with stand or hand mixer.
Add in powdered sugar and Irish cream. Mix to combine.
Fold in Creme Chantilly. Refrigerate for minimum 30 minutes.
Pipe cheesecake into cooled cookie cups and top with chocolate sprinkles. Refrigerate in an airtight container if not eating immediately. Can be made up to 8 hours in advance.
