Bite-size Melty Mint Sugar Cookie Cups recipe are chewy, buttery cookie cups with a melty mint in the middle. That mint flavor in the middle of the sweet cookie cups will just melt in your mouth and leave you with a delicious taste. I hope you try these Melty Mint Sugar Cookie Cups and impress your family and friends. They are truly best eaten while a little bit warm, but just as good cooled off!

Ingredients

1 cup Unsalted Butter softened to room temperature
1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
2 large Eggs
1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
2 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Salt
2 1/2 cups Unbleached White All-Purpose Flour
Melty Mint Candies not the petite size

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until mixed. Add vanilla and beat until mixed.
In the same bowl, add the baking powder and salt and beat until mixed.
Add the flour, a small amount at a time, and beat on medium speed until mixed well.
Roll the dough into about 1-inch balls, then place each ball into an ungreased mini muffin tin/pan.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until edges are light golden brown.
Immediately press a melty mint candy into the center of each cup. Allow the cookie cups to cool 10 minutes in the pan and then remove from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
