I love the holiday season and I love the holiday baking that comes with it.  That being said I do like my holiday baking to be on the easier side and these little sugar cookie bites are just that!

Easy and delicious these are always a hit at the holiday get together.  They are just so easy to pop in your mouth. 

I make these every year for Christmas Eve and I usually double the batch to make sure I have some for Christmas Day as well, although sometimes even that is not enough!  They are such a popular little treat.

Bite size desserts are always great at get togethers because people can just grab one or two as they walk by the dessert table and these are irresistible. I always create a dessert tray for Christmas Eve with lots of little sweet treats.

I created these Holiday Sugar Cookie Cheesecake Bites just for that platter and they are delicious!!  They are honestly so addicting it is dangerous.  The chewy sugar cookie cups are filled with a cheesecake/pudding filling and are just the perfect match.

Please make these this holiday season!  I promise they will be the hit of the dessert table!

It is impossible to eat just one (I had to give away my batch, I just could not stop myself lol)

What I really like about these cups is how easy and quick they are to make!  I start with a Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix and then add in a few holiday sprinkles.

I roll the dough into balls and pop them in little mini muffin tins and use my fingers to spread the dough up the sides.

Then I just bake and while they are baking I mix up a little vanilla pudding with some sweetened cream cheese and fill a ziploc back with that mixture.

When the cookies cups are done you will notice the middle has kinda filled in again.  Do not worry, while they are hot from the oven just use a spoon to kinda push the middle to the side creating your cup shape again.

Once they are cool just use your ziploc bag to fill the cups with the luscious cheesecake filling.

A few holiday sprinkles and they are ready to be devoured by your guests!

INGREDIENTS
