Cookie Dough Cookie Bowls Recipe

How to make it

---

• Beat together shortening, butter and sugars in a large bowl; add the egg and vanilla; beat until well mixed.
• Mix the flour and baking powder and gradually stir them into the batter; stir in the chocolate chips.
• Put batter into a large plastic bag and flatten into a disk; chill for at least an hour.
• Preheat your oven to 375.
• Turn your cupcake (or muffin) pan upside down and cover every other one with foil.
• NOTE: I use all of them, and I use no foil, I just spray the bottom of the pan with spray oil. If you want I guess you could use parchment or wax paper, foil just seemed not necessary!!
• NOTE: standard size cupcake pan requires a 4" circle of foil and the Texas size muffin pan requires a 6" circle of foil.
• Spray the foil with vegetable spray.
• Roll the chilled cookie dough (between two pieces of waxed paper) out to about 1/8th inch or about the same as pie dough.
• Cut circles and drape over foil, smoothing cracks together and trimming to fit.
• Bake 10-12 minutes or until light brown.
• Remove from oven and let them cool on the pan for about 10 minutes.
• After 10 minutes, gently lift them off of the pan (use the tip of a butter knife to lift one corner first) but don't remove the foil until the cookie bowl is completely cool.
• Fill just before serving.
