INGREDIENTS

Base

8 (8) chocolate chip cookies

Filling

175 g (1 cups) dark chocolate
120 ml (½ cups) heavy cream
250 g (8 ⅚ oz) cream cheese
90 g (¾ cups) powdered sugar
400 ml (1 ⅔ cups) heavy cream

Topping

175 g (1 cups) dark chocolate
120 ml (½ cups) heavy cream

Garnish

1 (1) chocolate chip cookie crushed

INSTRUCTIONS

Base

Blend the cookies into a fine crumb texture using a food processor or stick blender, ensuring a consistent and even base.
Evenly distribute the crumbs among four elegant mini dessert cups, pressing gently to form a compact layer.

Filling

Combine the chocolate and cream in a microwave-safe bowl, melting in 30-second bursts and stirring until you achieve a velvety smooth mixture. Allow cooling to room temperature.
Using a mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until fully blended and silky.
Add the cooled chocolate mixture along with the whipped heavy cream into the cream cheese mixture and blend until smooth and thick.
Transfer the filling into a piping bag and pipe it over the crumb base in the dessert cups.
Place in the refrigerator to set slightly while you prepare the topping.

Topping

Heat the chocolate and cream together in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Pour a generous layer of this chocolate mixture over each filled dessert cup, ensuring the filling is completely covered.
Refrigerate the dessert boxes for at least an hour before serving.

Garnish

Before serving, sprinkle a small amount of crushed cookie on the center of each dessert for an added crunch and visual appeal.

NOTES

For a smoother filling, let the cream cheese reach room temperature before mixing.

If the chocolate thickens too much, a quick heat burst can soften it.

Customize your dessert by using different types of chocolate for each layer.

These desserts are perfect for preparing ahead of time, allowing flavors to blend beautifully.
