Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prep Non-Stick Mega Mini Muffin and Cupcake Pan by spraying with Bake-Easy Non-Stick vegetable spray.
Divide cookie dough into 48 equal slices. Roll each slice into a 1-inch ball, and place one per cavity in the cupcake pan.
Once the oven is preheated, bake for 12-14 minutes or until the dough is golden brown. Rotate pan halfway through baking time.
Remove from the oven and immediately press centers of cookies with a small spoon (a measuring spoon works well), to form a cup. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
Remove cookie shells and place each onto a cooling grid. Let cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, add softened cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, heavy cream, lemon juice, and grated lemon zest. Beat using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
Pipe or spoon mixture into cooled cookie shells. Top evenly with strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries.

Notes

Fruit can be changed to individual preference. Serve immediately or chill.
