Preparation

Step 1

Bake 13 minutes. Immediately make indentations in center of each by lightly pressing with handle of wooden spoon. Cool in pans 5 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and sugar at medium speed with an electric beater until smooth. Stir in vanilla and lemon juice. Spoon evenly into cookie cups; sprinkle with chocolate candy sprinkles, if desired. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
