  • Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from making the cookies soggy.
  • Use a variety of fillings for your cookie cups. Some popular options include chocolate ganache, vanilla buttercream, and fruit preserves.

Conclusion:
