Fruit Cheesecake Sugar Cookie Cups

I think one of my favorite things about Summer is all of the fresh fruit! Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the produce section at our grocery store, however, there is just something about heading out to the garden and picking a fresh berry straight from the vine.
