Graham Cracker Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups

This recipe for Graham Cracker Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups are perfect for gift giving, because it makes a ton!

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is making goodies and delivering them to neighbors. I love baking, and it gives me the opportunity to try lots of new recipes, taste every one, and then give away the rest. It’s a win-win!

These little Christmas goodies are different from most cookie recipes, because instead of flour, they have crushed up graham crackers. They add a great rich flavor and some texture. And of course they are loaded with chocolate chips, then have more chocolate drizzled over the top.

Then there’s the nuts. I am a big fan of nuts in baked goods. Love the flavor and the crunch. I used pecans, but really, you could use any nut you prefer.

Aren’t they so pretty in the shiny gold liners?

Graham Cracker Cookie Cups

Print

Mini cookie cups made with graham cracker crumbs, and loaded with chocolate chips and pecans.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup soft butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup milk
• 2 3/4 cups finely crushed graham cracker crumbs
• 2 cups chocolate chips (I used half semi sweet/half milk chocolate
• 2 cups finely chopped pecans or walnuts

Topping:

• 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips, melted

Instructions

1. Cream butter and brown sugar till light and fluffy. Stir in the milk, crumbs, chocolate chips, and pecans.
2. Fill mini foil baking cups 3/4 full. If you don’t have mini muffin pans, you can just place the foil cups an inch apart on a cookie sheet. The foil holds its shape.
3. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or till set. Cool completely and drizzle with melted chocolate. Tip: Melt the chips in a ziplock bag in the microwave, then just snip of a tiny piece of the corner. Makes drizzling so much easier!

Notes

-For some brands of liners I used, the cookies stuck to the liners. To prevent this, you can spray the inside of the liners with non-stick spray, or just bake them in greased mini muffin cups, then place them in the foil liners after they are cooled.
