HOW TO MAKE COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES
- To heat-treat your flour, spread it in a thin layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees Farenheit for 5 minutes.
Pro Tip: Make sure your flour is completely cool before incorporating it into the cookie dough. - Cream together the butter, brown sugar, sugar, and salt and beat until fluffy.
- Mix in the milk and vanilla.
- Incorporate the heat-treated flour until mixture is uniform.
Pro Tip: Your dough should form a ball. - Stir 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips into the cookie dough.
- Scoop the dough with a 1-inch cookie scoop, roll into balls, and place each on the lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the truffles for 1 hour.
- Microwave the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, mixing until melted and smooth.
- Using two forks, dip half of the truffles completely in the melted white chocolate, allowing the excess to run off, and place them back on the parchment paper.
- Melt the milk chocolate chips and repeat for the other half of the truffles.
- If desired, use a spoon to drizzle the opposite colored chocolate over the truffles for decoration.
Pro Tip: If melted chocolate is too thick to drizzle, add a small amount of coconut oil to thin it.
- Chill the truffles until bark is hardened and serve.
- Enjoy!
