Equipment

  • microwave-safe plate
  • instant-read thermometer
  • medium bowl
  • parchment-lined baking sheet
  • small cookie scoop
  • microwave-safe bowl

Ingredients
  

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Coating

  • 1 cup melting chocolate chocolate chips or baking bar
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil optional, per cup of melting chocolate

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Heat treat the all-purpose flour by microwaving it until it reaches 160°F (71°C) then let it cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
  • Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually add the cooled, heat-treated flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Assembly

  • Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Refrigerate the cookie dough balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips or chopped baking chocolate, stirring in coconut oil if desired.
  • One by one, dip each chilled cookie dough ball into the melted chocolate, letting any excess drip off.
  • Immediately after dipping, decorate with extra mini chocolate chips, sea salt, or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
  • Return the dipped truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes until the chocolate coating is completely set.

Notes

For best results, ensure the flour is completely cooled before adding it to the wet ingredients. You can also customize your truffles with different toppings like chopped nuts or sprinkles.
