Ingredients
1box yellow cake mix
2eggs
1stick buttersoftened
3.25-ounceinstant vanilla pudding
1cupheavy whipping cream
1/2cupmilkI used skim
2tablespoonchocolate chipsI used dark chocolate
2tablespoonsheavy whipping cream
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Spray the cups of a mini muffin tin with cooking spray and set it aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs and butter until smooth.
Use a small scoop to evenly distribute the batter into all the cups (about a tablespoon or dough or so). Pat each cup down so that it has a smooth, flat top, and then bake for seven to eight minutes or until the edges are browned slightly.
Set the cookies aside to cool for about five minutes, and then use a tart shaper or a similarly shaped spoon handle to press down the middle of each cookie and create an indentation.
Let the cookies cool completely before going on to the next step, and remove them from the muffin tin.
For the filling, beat the pudding mix, cup of heavy cream and milk until the mixture forms stiff peaks.
Using the same scoop as before, evenly distribute the filling into all of the cups.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and two tablespoons heavy cream and microwave 10 seconds at a time, stirring between each heating, until the mixture is smooth. Spoon a little of the ganache over each of the cookies, and then refrigerate them until the ganache is set.
Store the cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
