Cookie Dough Truffles

10:10 AM


When I first heard about Cookie Dough Truffles, I thought what a concept. When you are baking Chocolate Chip Cookies, who doesn't eat half of the dough before you can even get them on the baking sheets? 

That would be me - I try, and I try and I can't keep myself from eating the cookie dough right out of the bowl before I can get the first cookie sheet ready for baking. 

I made some of these truffles for Christmas gifts this year, and I can truly say they are the gift that keeps on giving deliciousness!

 Cookie Dough Truffles
Recipe Source:  Angela Lively of Baxter Tennessee
    1/2 cup butter, softened
    3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 cups flour
    1 (14-oz) can sweetened condensed milk
    1/2 cup semi sweet mini chocolate chips
    1 cup finely chopped pecans
    1 1/2 pounds chocolate bark, melted
In a large bowl cream butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed until creamy. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in flour and add milk. Add chocolate morsels and pecans, mixing well. Shape into 1-inch balls. Place on waxed paper; chill 2 hours.

Note: Since the dough is sticky, roll your fingers into flour. This will make it easier to roll. Melt chocolate bark candy coating in a double boiler. Using 2 forks, dip cookie balls into candy coating to cover. Place on waxed paper and chill to set. Store in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

    I've had a recipe for cookie dough truffles for several months and planned to make it for my cookie trays at christmas, but I FORGOT!!! Who doesn't love cookie dough. I might almost like it better than the baked cookies. Yours looks so good I can't wait to try out the recipe.

    I am not a cookie dough person, smiles. I just don't get it. But then, I'm one of those odd folks who don't care for chocolate either.

    I think I need therapy.

    These look great! I'm like you, I eat half the dough before the first cookie gets dropped onto a pan. Can't wait to try these!
