Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles
Do you let your kids help in the kitchen? My kids love to pull a chair over to the counter to stir and dump ingredients into the bowl. It’s a good test of patience since it usually ends up with a mess of some kind, but they love to be included.
Cookies are one of their favorite things to make. These truffles are very kid friendly, with no egg they can sneak as much dough as you allow.
Plus the dough is less sticky than regular cookie dough and they can roll the truffles into balls without making such a mess.
This recipe for the chocolate chip cookie dough truffles is slightly different because it uses sweetened condensed milk which gives them a nice smooth texture.
Be sure to include the molasses in the recipe. It gives the truffles the signature cookie dough flavor. If you grease your measuring spoon first, it will help the molasses pour right out without sticking to the spoon.
Having the right tools in the kitchen is key to easy assembly and clean-up. This scoop makes the perfect-sized cookie dough ball to easily roll. You know parchment lined sheets are my go to for easy clean-up. Be sure to keep these on hand!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites
- Cream together the butter, brown sugar, molasses, and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the sweetened condensed milk, flour, and salt. Stir until smooth. Add mini chocolate chips.
- Roll the dough into 40 balls, slightly less than an inch in diameter. Place the balls on a parchment lined baking sheet and chill for an hour.
- Gently melt the chocolate over low heat in a double boiler or in the microwave at 10 second intervals. Dip each of the chilled truffles in the chocolate and let cool completely on parchment paper. Truffles will last a week in the refrigerator or several weeks in the freezer.

Shouldnt you cook the floor?

Hi there, while I personally do not stress the raw flour, I know some are concerned with the safety. Using the microwave, you can cook (aka heat treat) the flour for 1 minute and 30 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds. Or if you prefer to use the the oven, spread flour out on a baking sheet and bake at 350 F for 5 minutes. Use immediately or store in an airtight container for later use.
