Cookie Dough Truffles
Ingredients
  • ½ cups butter
  • ¾ cups brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 pound semi-sweet chocolate, for melting
Instructions
  1. In an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar. Add vanilla. With mixer on low, slowly add in the flour and salt, until completely incorporated. It will be very dry but that is okay. Beat in milk until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour. The dough should be very firm.
  3. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out dough and roll in hands to form balls. Place on a lined baking tray. Refrigerate again for at least 30 minutes, or until you are ready to dip.
  4. Melt chocolate in the microwave or using a double boiler. Dip dough into melted chocolate. Place on the lined baking tray. If desired, decorate with sprinkles, colored sugars, chocolate chips, etc. Allow the chocolate to fully harden.
  5. Store in an airtight container in the fridge, or freeze for longer storage. When you want them, thaw them in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.
  6. Makes approximately 36 truffles, depending on size.
Notes
These are also great with a Tablespoon of peanut butter mixed in! Recipe barely adapted from Dinners, Dishes, and Desserts.
