How would you adapt this cake mix cookie for mini muffin tins ?

I normally make a large pizza cookie from the recipe similar (mine calls for butter) below but I want to make mini bite cookies using my mini muffin tins .I will be using holiday M&M's
The batter is extremely thick so what temperature would you cook it on and for how long? Thanks!

1 (15 oz) box of yellow or white cake mix ▪️ 2 eggs, beaten ▪️ 1/3 cup olive oil, canola oil, or vegetable oil ▪️ 1/3 cup chocolate chips ▪️ 1/3 cup peanut butter chips ▪️ 1/3 cup miniature M&M's ▪️ (a few more chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and M&M's on top, if desired)

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×13 glass baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large glass mixing bowl, combine cake mix, olive oil, and eggs using an electric hand mixer and mix until smooth and combined. The batter will be very thick.
  • Gently fold in chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and miniature M&M’s.
  • Spread batter evenly in the dish using a rubber spatula. If needed, slightly wet hands and press until evenly spread.
  • If desired, sprinkle the top with a few more chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and M&M’s.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a light golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
 

I would make the batter and then do some tests. Just put batter in one or two of the muffin cups. I would also go in 350 but for 8 minutes, then check them. You can always add time a couple of minutes at a time but you can't take them back if they over bake. It might be a little tricky at first. You don't want to waste a lot of batter to get it just right.
