Directions
- For crust mix butter and powdered sugar until well blended. Add egg and mix until well combined. Add salt and vanilla.
- Add flour in one step and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Press dough evenly flat onto a sheet of plastic food film. Place dough in refrigerator or freezer for at least 30 minutes or until well chilled.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.

- Set aside a mini muffin tin with 24 indentions.
- Sprinkle chilled area lightly with flour and roll dough 1/8-inch or slightly thinner. Cut into circles using a round cutter with a diameter of about 2 3/4 inch. Place each circle of dough into place. Making a cup. Make 16-18 cups. Pre-rolled dough can be chilled and rolled again.
- Prick bottom using a fork and place in oven. (Filling with pie weights is not necessary). Check cups after 5 minutes of baking. Chances are that bottoms are puffing up. If so, prick with tip of a paring knife.
- Bake until light golden, about 12-15 minutes. Set aside.
- In a bowl large enough to hold all ingredients combine hot water, baking soda, and molasses. Set aside.
- In another bowl combine flour, brown sugar, and butter and rub together between fingers until mixture becomes coarse textured streusel. Remove/set aside 1/2 cup of this mixture to be used for sprinkling surface of shoofly cups.
- Add egg yolk and vanilla to molasses mixture. Add main streusel amount and combine well.
- Spoon into prebaked cookie cups and place in oven for 12 minutes. Sprinkle cups with remaining streusel and bake another 7-10 minutes or until shoofly cups have set when center is pressed with a finger.
