Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

Mix two savory dessert favorites into one with this truffle recipe!

Prep time: 45 mins

Total time: 45 mins

Yields 20 truffles


– 1/3 cup butter, softened

– 1/3 cup light brown sugar

– 1 1/2 tsps. vanilla extract

– 1 cup all-purpose flour

– 1-2 tsps. milk

– 1 cup mini chocolate chips

– 2 cups high quality chocolate chips, for melting


Directions

In a mixing bowl beat together the butter, brown sugar and vanilla. Stir in the flour, just until combined.

If the dough is too dry, add 1-2 tsp of milk. Stir in mini chocolate chips. 

Grease your hands with cooking spray and roll the dough into 20, small balls (about 1 inch). Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or freeze for 15 minutes.

When the dough is firm, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Drop the cookie dough into the melted chocolate and turn it gently with a fork. Lift it up onto the fork and allow excess chocolate to drip off. 

Place it on parchment paper. Repeat with remaining dough balls. Refrigerate until chocolate is set.
