Generously grease a 36-cup muffin tin or individual 3-inch tins. Scoop the chilled dough into the prepared cups, pressing it up the sides and leaving a depression in the center. Bake until lightly browned, about 18 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool for 2 minutes, then tap the tins to remove the cookies. Dust the warm cookies with confectioners' sugar.
