Description
These delightful Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles are bite-sized, no-bake treats with a soft, edible cookie dough interior enrobed in rich chocolate—a perfect indulgence for any occasion.
Ingredients
½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups (≈250 g) all-purpose flour, heat-treated
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1½ pounds chocolate bark or melting chocolate, for coating
Optional toppings: extra chocolate chips, sprinkles, sea salt, chopped nuts
Instructions
- Heat‑treat the flour by spreading it on a baking sheet and baking at 350°F for about 10 minutes, or microwaving in 30–15 second intervals until it reaches 160°F. Let it cool completely.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla extract.
- Gradually beat in the cooled, heat-treated flour, then stir in sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
- Fold in miniature chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or longer if needed.
- Scoop dough into 1-inch balls and place on a lined baking sheet. Refrigerate or freeze for 15–30 minutes to firm.
- Melt chocolate bark or melting chocolate in 30-second microwave intervals or using a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each dough ball into the melted chocolate, tapping off excess. Add toppings if desired.
- Allow the chocolate coating to set by refrigerating the truffles for 15–30 minutes.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Make sure to properly heat-treat the flour to ensure it’s safe to eat raw.
- For a flavor twist, add extracts like almond or coconut to the dough.
- To prevent cracking, ensure the dough is well-chilled before dipping in chocolate.
- Customize with different chocolate coatings and toppings.
- Let truffles sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving for best texture.
