Drop 1-1.5 tablespoons of dough into the greased mini muffin pan. Bake at 350°F for ⏱️ 12-15 minutes.

Remove the cookies from oven and allow to cool for at least ⏱️ 10 minutes. Use a tart shaper or the back of a spoon to gently push down the middle of the cookies. Allow to cool for another ⏱️ 30 minutes in the pan. You may need to run a knife around the edge of the cookies to help release them from the pan. Cool completely.

For the filling
9
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the instant pudding mix with the Baileys and the milk and whisk until the powder dissolves. Refrigerate the pudding until it’s firm.
10
To prepare the whipped cream, place your mixing bowl and wire whisk in the freezer for ⏱️ 5-10 minutes until it’s completely cold. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks start to form. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form.
11
Take 1 ½ cups of the whipped cream and fold it into the prepared pudding until it is well combined.
12
To assemble the cookies, put the mousse in a Ziploc bag. Cut the tip off the end of the bag and gently fill the middle of the cooled cookie cup with mousse. Divide between cookie cups, you may have leftover mousse.
13
Top the mousse with a dollop of the leftover whipped cream.
14
For the ganache
15
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of Baileys and microwave for ⏱️ 30 seconds. If the chocolate is not yet melted, return it to the microwave for another ⏱️ 15-30 seconds. Once melted, stir until completely smooth. Add a second tablespoon of Baileys and stir it into the chocolate until it’s nice and thin. Drizzle the ganache over top of the whipped cream.
16
These cookies must be refrigerated in an air-tight container after the mousse has been added.
