1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
-
1½ cups cold milk
For the chocolate topping:

¼ cup heavy cream
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven: Set to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or coat with non-stick spray.
2️⃣ Form cookie cups: Divide cookie dough into 24 pieces. Press each into the mini muffin tin to form a shallow cup shape.
3️⃣ Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden. Immediately press down centers to create wells. Let cool completely in the tin before removing.
4️⃣ Make filling: In a bowl, whisk vanilla pudding mix with cold milk for 2–3 minutes until thickened. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to firm up.
5️⃣ Fill cups: Spoon or pipe pudding into the cooled cookie cups.
6️⃣ Make ganache: Microwave chocolate chips and cream in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and glossy.
7️⃣ Top the bites: Spoon a little ganache over each filled cookie bite.
8️⃣ Chill and serve: Refrigerate 15–20 minutes until chocolate is set. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
