Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

If you find yourself running out cookie dough before being able to bake it, then this the recipe for you! This dough is made to be eaten! I found this recipe on the Food Network but modified it a little myself. The original recipe called for 1 cup finely chopped pecans and 1 14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk. I, however, didn't add the nuts (figured it had enough calories already:)), used fat-free sweetened condensed milk (did't effect the consistency), and also used a little less than the recommended 14 oz can (use about 2/3 of the can). This gives you the "real" cookie dough look...thick and creamy, mmm :). 


1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
1 (or 2/3rd can) 14 oz can (fat-free) sweetened condensed milk 
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips 
1 bar chocolate candy coating

Cream together butter, brown sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add the flour and condensed milk, alternating between the two evenly. Stir in chocolate chips. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours. In the meantime, melt your chocolate. Roll dough into 1" balls, dip into chocolate, and let dry on a piece of parchment paper and enjoy!
