Description
Simple truffles made from edible chocolate chip cookie dough.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 16 ounces melting chocolate or chocolate coating
Instructions
- Heat treat the flour: Spread the flour on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 5 minutes. Let it cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cooled flour and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the vanilla extract and milk until just combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
- In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the cookie dough mixture to the cream cheese and mix until fully incorporated.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the dough balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the coating chocolate according to package directions.
- Dip each chilled dough ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
- Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment-lined sheet.
- Refrigerate until the chocolate coating is set.
Notes
- To heat treat the flour, you must reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (71 degrees C) to kill any potential bacteria.
- Use good quality melting chocolate for the best coating finish.
