Description
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles are rich, bite-sized treats made from egg-free cookie dough filled with mini chocolate chips and coated in smooth melted chocolate. They’re no-bake, safe to eat, and perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon milk (if needed)
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (for coating)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for melting)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Mix in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
- Gradually add heat-treated flour and salt, stirring gently to form a soft dough.
- If the dough is crumbly, add 1 tablespoon of milk to bind it together.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips evenly.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the dough balls for 15–20 minutes until firm.
- Melt the semisweet chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each chilled dough ball in the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, and place back on the parchment paper.
- Let the truffles set at room temperature or in the fridge until the chocolate hardens.
Notes
- Ensure flour is heat-treated before using to make it safe to eat raw.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based butter and dairy-free chocolate chips.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
- Add a pinch of sea salt on top of the coating for a sweet-salty flavor twist.
