Gingersnap Cookie Cups

Yields 12 cups
Servings: 1 cookie cup, without ice cream
Calories: 121kcal

Ingredients

  • cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 quart of Baskin Robbins® Pumpkin Cheesecake

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat.
  • In a small bowl, sift together flour, ginger, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Pour in the corn syrup and molasses and mix until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture in two additions and mix until combined and a smooth dough forms.
  • Working in batches of two, form walnut-sized balls with 2 tablespoons of dough. Place on prepared baking sheet, about 6-inches apart*.
  • Flatten slightly into a disc and bake for 9 minutes, just until the edges become crisp and darken. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 1-2 minutes. The cookies should still be warm and completely pliable, but doesn’t fall apart when lifted up. Using a small off-set spatula, gently lift and transfer the cookie to the back of a muffin pan and drape over a muffin well. Mold the warm cookie against the muffin cup and shape ruffles along the edges of the cup. Let set for a few seconds to cool and harden.
  • Repeat steps 5 & 6 with the remaining dough.
  • Fill the cups with scoops of Baskin Robbins® Pumpkin Cheesecake and serve immediately.
