What could be more fun than puddle jumping and mud pies?
Well the answer is Fudge Puddles and Miniature Pies. One of my favorite cookie recipes is from my mother in law. She called it an Italian Fudge Roll. I just switched it up a little and turned it into a small tart and call it Fudge Puddles.
My mother-in-laws recipe suggested making the dough, rolling it out into a rectangle shape and then form the filling onto 1/3 of rectangle and roll it as you would a sausage roll. Then bake it off and slice it into cookies.
I however, prefer to press the dough into my mini muffin cups and then fill with the fudge filling. I also like to use this dough recipe and fill it with other fillings. As you can see in the photo below I made both Fudge Puddles and then using the same dough filled them with apple pie filling and topped with a streusel topping.
