Cookie Dough Truffles

The flavourful filling at the center of these yummy candies tastes like genuine chocolate chip cookie dough, without the worry of raw eggs.


½ cup butter, softened
¾ cup packed brown sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped walnuts
1½ lbs semisweet candy coating, chopped


In a mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add flour, milk and vanilla; mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts. Shape into 1-inch balls; place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Loosely cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until firm.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt candy coating, stirring often until smooth. Dip balls in coating; place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.

If desired, remelt remaining candy coating and drizzle over candies. Store in refrigerator.
