  4. Alternate adding dry ingredients with sour cream and milk until just combined.
  5. Fill each cupcake liner halfway with batter, then add a scoop of chilled cookie dough to the center.
  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
  7. For cookie dough frosting, beat together softened butter and brown sugar; gradually add flour, salt, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir in mini chocolate chips.
  8. Frost cooled cupcakes with the cookie dough frosting as desired.
