Chocolate Chip Cookie Truffles

Print Recipe

Warm, chocolatey, and perfectly bite-sized, these Chocolate Chip Cookie Truffles combine the soft, buttery flavor of cookie dough with mini chocolate chips, all enrobed in a silky layer of semi-sweet chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (any kind)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
  • 1 and 1/4 cups heat-treated all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 8 ounces semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil or coconut oil
  • Optional: flaky sea salt and/or chocolate sprinkles for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape the bowl to blend evenly.
  2. Add the milk and vanilla extract, and beat on high until combined. Scrape as needed.
  3. Mix in heat-treated flour and salt at medium speed until fully combined, then gradually stir in mini chocolate chips. Chill if dough is too sticky.
  4. Roll dough into 1 tablespoon balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  5. Melt chocolate and oil in a double boiler or microwave. Stir until smooth.
  6. Dip each chilled ball in chocolate and tap off excess. Place on a lined baking sheet.
  7. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt or chocolate sprinkles if desired.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to set. Store in an airtight container for up to 10 days.

Notes

For best results, work with chilled dough. Use a small cookie scoop for uniform truffle sizes and warm the melted chocolate to avoid graininess.
