Equipment

  • 24-count mini muffin pan
  • Pastry tamper or shot glass

Ingredients

For the Cookie Base

  • 1 can Cooking Spray Ensures easy removal of the cookie cups from the pan.
  • 1 package Sugar Cookie Dough Provides a sweet and soft foundation for the cookie cups.

For the Filling

  • 1 can Canned Pumpkin Puree Adds creamy texture and seasonal flavor to the filling.
  • 1 cup Whipped Topping Lends lightness and freshness; use either store-bought or homemade for best results.

For the Drizzle

  • 1 cup Caramel Syrup Elevates sweetness and gives a gooey finish to each cookie cup.

Instructions

How to Make Caramel Pumpkin Cookie Cups

  • Preheat the Oven: Start by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C). While it warms up, take your 24-count mini muffin pan and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Roll the Dough: Grab the sugar cookie dough and roll it into small balls—about the size of a tablespoon. Place one dough ball into each muffin cup, ensuring they're well spaced.
  • Bake the Cups: Pop the muffin pan into the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Once done, remove them, and immediately press the center of each cookie with a pastry tamper or a shot glass to create a hollow cup.
  • Cool Completely: Allow the cookie cups to cool completely in the pan.
  • Fill with Pumpkin: Once cooled, take your canned pumpkin puree and fill each cookie cup generously. Add a dollop of whipped topping on each before finishing with a drizzle of caramel syrup for that sweet touch.

Notes

Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon for an added autumn flair. Drizzle caramel syrup just before serving for a fresh finish.
