I had some left over cookie dough in my freezer so I thought I'd try combining my favorites - cookie dough and cupcakes!
Cookie Dough Cupcakes
(idea from Ice Cream Before Dinner)
Frozen cookie dough - you don't need too much, maybe 10 cookies worth?
Vanilla cake mix
3 eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup oil
Frosting
First, thaw your cookie dough so that you can reform it into little balls - about the size of a marble, maybe just a little bigger. And then refreeze.
I cheated and used a cake mix (sorry!!) but it was quicker and I could use my meal points. Make the cupcakes according to the instructions on the box and then when you fill the cupcake liners, do just a little bit less than normal. Not too much, but the cookie dough ball will take up some of the volume. Plop a cookie dough ball right in the middle and bake for 18-21 minutes!
They should come out looking just like normal cupcakes and your guests will have no idea what surprise is in store for them! Once cooled, frost the cupcakes (again I just used a store bought :/) and garnish with some cookie crumbs! (I baked the left over cookie dough and then broke up the cookies to put on top)
