Prepare a muffin tray and fill with muffin holders and evenly distribute the cookie mixture into each of the muffin holders and press with the back of a spoon until firm.
For the filling: In a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and sugar. Using a food mixer, beat until creamy. Add in the flour, egg, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and mix to combine.
