The recipe is really made for mini muffins, nothing bigger than that. Instead of the white chocolate (which, by the way, is sugar-free, so whether or not you are going to sweeten it, that depends on you), you can try adding maple syrup, which also goes great with the hazelnuts.

The recipe requires a package of sugar cookies you need to bake, but if you’re not into buying already made cookies, or muffins, you can make your own. Then it’s really simple – you put chocolate on them and the ice cream on top. Adding nuts such as walnuts will make them much tastier. The same goes for the raspberries.
9. Cheesecake Bites
Here’s another dessert you can make in a short time – it will take you about fifteen minutes. The pudding on the top of the cookies can be replaced by white or dark/milk chocolate or even ice cream. You can also add berries on top or even crushed Oreo cookies. There are many possibilities, and it’s up to you to try them out.
10. Oreo Truffles
A super delicious combination of Oreo and chocolate. They will definitely be eaten in a short time because they are so petite and perfect, not just for gatherings.
