BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES
INGREDIENTS:
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup brown sugar
2-3 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 -1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 -3/4 cup milk chocolate chips
2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, or melting wafers (for dipping)
Sea salt , chopped nuts, or sprinkles (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Line a baking sheet with wax paper. In a bowl mix together butter, sugar and vanilla. Then slowly mix in flour and mix just until combined. I like to start with 1/2 cup and add more, until it reaches the “cookie dough” consistency. Then stir in desired amount of milk chocolate chips. Make one inch balls with the dough and place on the pan. Freeze for about 15 to 30 minutes.
When the dough is firm, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave at 50% power. Then dip the cookie dough in the chocolate with a fork. Tap off an excess chocolate. Place back on wax paper and top with sea salt, nuts or sprinkles if desired. Place back in the freezer until chocolate has hardened.
Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
