I just knew I would have to share this recipe pinched from Pillsbury.com that arrived in my e-mail today.. these look so easy- and who would have thought to do this but bloggers Adam and Joanne Gallagher from Taste of Home. They make these with chocolate chip cookie cups and rich cheesecake filling..So get started and make some! JUST THINK OF ALL THE OTHER THINGS YOU CAN PUT INTO THESE COOKIE CUPS! Like ice cream or pudding or jello or pie filling or cool whip with fresh fruit....etc.
