Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Heat-treated for safety.
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened Allows for creamy texture.
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar For sweetness and moisture.
  • 1/4 cup white sugar Balances the sweetness.
  • 1 tablespoon milk Adds moisture to the dough.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Balances the sweetness.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Semi-sweet or your choice.
For the Coating
  • 1 cup chocolate coating or melting chocolate Can use chocolate chips or wafers.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat treat the flour by spreading it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Let cool.
  2. Cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large bowl until smooth.
  3. Add milk, vanilla, and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  4. Slowly add the cooled, heat-treated flour, stirring until no dry lumps remain.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Roll small portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) into balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Freeze the dough balls for 15-20 minutes to help them hold their shape.
  8. Melt the chocolate coating in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
  9. Dip each chilled dough ball into the melted chocolate using a fork, allowing excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on parchment.
  10. Refrigerate the coated truffles for at least 15 minutes until the chocolate sets.
Serving
  1. Serve the truffles family-style from a dish, allowing everyone to take their favorites.
