Made with heat-treated flour for safety and plenty of mini chocolate chips, these bite-sized truffles are perfect for satisfying sweet cravings in just 15 minutes.


Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 3/4 Cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1/4 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup White Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup Unsalted Butter – melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon Almond Extract (use 1/8 tsp for a milder flavor)
  • 1/3 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Whole Milk

Chocolate Shell

  • 1½ Cups Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Shortening


Instructions

  1. Prepare Flour: Heat the flour to eliminate any harmful bacteria by spreading it on a baking sheet and baking at 300°F for 10 minutes or microwaving it for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches 160°F on an instant-read thermometer. Allow it to cool completely.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the heat-treated flour, sea salt, dark brown sugar, and white sugar. Stir well to blend all dry components evenly.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the melted unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and almond extract until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.
  4. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the mini chocolate chips to distribute them throughout the dough evenly.
  5. Incorporate Milk: Add whole milk one-half tablespoon at a time, stirring after each addition, until the mixture comes together to form a dough-like consistency.
  6. Form Dough Balls: Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls, approximately 12 in total, and place them on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate to firm while preparing the chocolate shell.
  7. Melt Chocolate Shell: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vegetable shortening. Microwave for 1½ minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, then stir vigorously until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
  8. Coat Dough Balls: Dip each cookie dough ball into the melted chocolate to coat thoroughly. Return the coated truffles to the wax paper-lined baking sheet.
  9. Set Truffles: Refrigerate the dipped truffles for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate shell to become firm and set.

Notes

  • Heating the flour is essential to make this cookie dough safe to eat raw.
  • You can adjust the almond extract amount depending on how pronounced you want the almond flavor.
  • If the dough feels too sticky, add a bit more flour or refrigerate it to firm up before rolling.
  • Use good quality chocolate for the shell for best flavor and texture.
  • Store the truffles in the refrigerator and consume within 5 days for optimal freshness.
