    How to make this Pumpkin Mousse Cookie Cups Recipe

    Ingredients needed to make this Pumpkin Mousse Cookie Cups Recipe 

    For the cookie cups themselves, you will need:

    • ⅔ cup flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 cup softened butter
    • 1-¼ cup white sugar
    • 1 egg
    Grease mini muffin pan and heat your oven to 375 degrees. 

    Cream butter and sugar until fluffy - usually about 2-3 minutes. Beat in egg. Add flour, baking soda and baking powder and mix until combined.

    Roll into 1" balls and press centers down with pastry shaper - or the back of a teaspoon. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely before filling.

    For the filling, you will need:

    • 1 cup (8 ounces) heavy whipping cream
    • ¼ cup powdered sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    • ¼ cup pumpkin puree
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • nutmeg (optional) for sprinkling

    Directions for making this Pumpkin Mousse Cookie Cups Recipe

    Using a mixer and a whisk, beat whipping cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Stir in vanilla, pumpkin and cinnamon and mix well.
     
    Pumpkin Mousse Cookie Cups Recipe

    Pipe onto cookie cups using a pastry bag fitted with a 2M tip. Sprinkle with nutmeg if desired.

    This recipe makes about 48 cookie cups. 

    I suggest serving shortly after filling. You can refrigerate, but the cookie will soften a bit. Not bad, just not the cream + crunch you will have if you serve immediately. You can always refrigerate the mousse until ready to serve.
