Instructions
For from scratch sugar cookie dough: (optional)
Cream the butter and sugar together with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add in the eggs and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder and then slowly add it to the sugar-butter mixture.
Once all of the flour is incorporated into the dough, form into a ball and cover with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes before shaping into cookie cups.
For banana cream cookie cups:
Preheat oven to 350F
Grease a muffin or tart tin and press 1-2 Tablespoons of cookie dough into each indentation and press to shape into a cup shape (along the bottom and sides of the indentation).
When each muffin tin is full, bake the cookie cups for 8-12 minutes (will vary depending on the size of your tin).
Allow the cookie cups to cool in the muffin tray before removing.
For the banana pudding filling, use a hand mixer to combine the banana pudding mix and milk until starting to thicken, about 2 minutes.
Fold in the whipped cream topping and be careful not to overmix.
Spoon 1-2 Tablespoons of the banana cream filling into the cookie cups and top as desired.
