Well now! Shut the back door.
Do I have a yummy treat for you today, my blog reading friends.
I’m sure many of you have seen recipes for cookie dough truffles floating around the food blogosphere.
Well, I had to get my hands on some.
Just had to.
I’m weird like that.
I can’t have folks making cookie dough and dipping it in chocolate with out me.
You heard me.
COOKIE DOUGH DIPPED IN CHOCOLATE…
Did I not say “shut the back door”?
Shut it up tight and get to mixin’ and dippin’
mixin’ and dippin’
and tastin’
and ooooo-in’
and aaahhhhh-in’
and just plain enjoyin’ the life God gave ya.
while you dip it in chocolate….
Cookie Dough Truffles
Yield: 48 truffles
Time: about 40 min hands on time + 2 hours to freeze before dipping
Recipe adapted from Mels Kitchen Cafe
1/2 C butter, softened
3/4 C brown sugar, packed
2 1/4 C flour
1 -14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1 t vanilla
1/2 C mini chocolate chips
2 -12 oz bags semi sweet chocolate chips
1/4 C milk chocolate chips
1 T shortening, divided
1. Cream your butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
2. Add the flour, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and mix well.
3. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
4. Shape into 1 inch balls and place on a sprayed cookie sheet. Cover with saran wrap and freeze for 1-2 hours. You want them to be firm here folks. It makes the dipping a lot easier.
5. In a liquid measuring cup (I used the cup that will hold 16 oz, or 2 cups) melt your semi sweet chocolate in the microwave. Only heat it for 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating interval.
Add about 2 t of shortening to the chocolate and stir to incorporate.
6. Dip each frozen cookie dough ball into the chocolate and then place on wax paper.
7. Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave and add 1 t shortening. Stir it well and then drizzle it over the tops of the truffles.
7. Put the truffles back in the fridge to set for about 15 minutes.
Enjoy!
Those look so yummy!!
Yum yum yum! That's all I can say!!!!
Oh my!! Just when I thought I was doing good on Weight Watchers, you had to pull this one:) Yum!!!
I've shared your website with my friends and they all love it. Thanks for the great recipes. This would make a yummy wedding treat too!
I knew you were my kind of people!!!!! Who doesn't love cookie dough dipped in chocolate? This recipe is going in the must try file, right now!
You really shouldn't share such irresistably tempting recipes. I have been doing so good and have lost 15 pounds! A recipe like that will put it all back. I can't resist cookie dough in the first place and then to show me a recipe that has it dipped in chocolate!
Your truffles look absolutely perfect. Wow. The chocolate almost look tempered!! Good job!
Ok, super yummy! I am so addicted to your blog that as soon as you post a new recipe I have to make it right away…especially when it's a dessert recipe! 🙂 So, I made these this afternoon with what I had on hand. Instead of mini chocolate chips I used Skor toffee pieces. I didn't have milk chocolate to decorate with, so mine are just dipped in semi-sweet…and they are TO DIE for!! I'm sharing some with Katherine tonite so I don't eat them all myself. 🙂
Kim,
SKOR TOFEE PIECES! Shut the back door and turn up the party music! What a great idea!
