Cookie Dough Truffles - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup softened salted butter
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 (14oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
2 1/4 c flour
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Preparation

combine (in a bowl,) the butter, sugar,vanilla,and sweetened condensed milk. Add the flour and chocolate chips.

Now, you may be able to form this into balls at this point. I however, could not- I think it's the summertime in Florida problem. That's why we have refrigerators. Chill your dough if you need to. Maybe a half hour. Roll into walnut sized balls. Place balls in the freezer for 2hrs.

Melt 12 oz chocolate chips with 1 tbs shortening or butter. To melt, place in a microwave at 25 second intervals, stirring between each. Be careful- overheated chocolate can seize up. Just get it till it's starting to melt and stir away, the chocolate will continue to melt and smooth out. My little tip. I have ruined a lot of chocolate in my days.

Now, you can dip the balls using a spoon- or fill pastry bags with the melted chocolate and drizzle. You don't have pastry bags? Okay, in this instance a plastic bag should work. But, next time you see some of those disposable pastry bagsget them. They are so worth it. So, drizzle or dip and store these babies in the fridge. Unless you live in an igloo. But- I don't think igloos have internet, do they? I have never seen an igloo in real life. Do they still exist? Hmmm I need to google that.
