Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 c butter, room temperature (2 sticks)
3/4 c granulated sugar
3/4 c packed brown sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/3 c milk
1 c mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 pkg semi sweet chocolate chips (optional: chocolate or peanut butter candy coating)
1 Tbsp Crisco shortening

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium size bowl add the dry ingredients (flour, salt and baking soda). Stir gently together. Set aside.
  • 2. Beat butter and sugars in a large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add milk and vanilla.
  • 3. Set mixer on low speed and slowly add the dry ingredients. Mix until incorporated.
  • 4. Stir in (by hand) the mini semi-sweet morsels into the cookie dough.
  • 5. Prepare a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Roll cookie dough into 1 inch balls. Place on baking sheet, allowing cookies to gently touch each other.
  • 6. Place the baking sheets in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • 7. While dough is chilling; melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a double boiler. Add the shortening (this will aid in thinning the chocolate). Stir until completely smooth.
  • 8. Prepare an additional baking sheet lined with wax paper. Use toothpicks as a tool to dip and coat the cookie dough balls into the melted chocolate. Place the chocolate truffle on the waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Chill until set. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
