Shark Fin Cookie Cups

Cookie: 1 yellow cake mix ½ cup vegetable oil 2 eggs 1 cup chocolate chips Frosting: 2 cups heavy whipping cream 4 Tbsps. powdered sugar 1-3 drops blue gel food color Shark Fins: 6oz white chocolate Black gel food color Blue sprinkles for topping if desired Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt 4oz chocolate in melting pot or double broiler, stirring frequently. Add 1-3 drops black food color to get the color grey as dark as you want. Using spoon or knife or wooden skewer, form shark fins using melted chocolate. I free handed my fins but if you are unsure, just find and print a fin template. Place it under the parchment paper and then fill in outline. Set aside or refrigerate until solid and ready for use. Preheat oven to 375°F. Place muffin liners in muffin tin or spray tin liberally with cooking spray and set aside. In large bowl, mix cake mix, oil and eggs. Mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Scoop about 1.5-2 Tbsps. cookie dough into muffin cups. Bake 15-18 minutes or until just slightly turning brown. Remove from oven and wait 3 minutes. Using back of small measuring cup or shot glass, lightly press into top of each cup creating an indention in the middle. Let sit in pan 10 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. In large clean bowl, whip together heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Add food color and lightly mix until desired color is reached. (I left it barely mixed so it would have streaks.) Spoon or pipe whipped topping into each cup and top with sprinkles and add a shark fin to each one. So fun!
