Put one square (1 tablespoon) of cookie dough in each spot in mini muffin pan. Mold dough up sides of each cup. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
Remove from oven and use the end of a wooden spoon handle to reshape the puffed cookie cups. Let cookies cool in the pan for a few minutes and then gently twist each cookie before removing and placing on cooling rack.
Mix cream cheese, butter and vanilla. Slowly add powdered sugar and mix well.
Use a small spoon to fill each cookie cup with cream cheese frosting.
