Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookie Muffins

Ingredients:
1 package of refrigerated chocolate chip cookies with walnuts (make sure it is softened...I used Pillsbury)
1 package of softened cream cheese (about 6-8oz)
2 and 2/3 cups of flaked coconut
1/2 cup of coffee-flavored liqueur (optional)

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Line 12 muffin cups with baking cups (PAPER baking cups).  In a large bowl, combine cookie dough and cream cheese.  Then stir in the coconut.  Using my pampered chef medium scooper, scoop dough evenly into paper lined cups.
2. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until the muffins are brown and cooked throughout (use a toothpick to determine if muffins are done: insert in center and if it comes out clean, you know they are done).  Pour 1-2 tsp of liqueur over each warm muffin.  Let it cool for about 5 minutes.  Then remove from muffin cups and SERVE!

ENJOY!
