on Mar 12, 2012, Updated Oct 30, 2024 46 Comments Cookies hold a definite place of distinction around my house. From chewy sugar cookies to chocolate chip cookies, cookies are always a favorite. I decided I’d combine some flavors from our chocolate chip cookies and my chocolate chip cookie dough dip to make the perfect cookie dough truffles recipe. With one bite, you immediately feel like a kid again sneaking a little bite of the cookie dough. Well, I did, at least.
How to Make Cookie Dough Truffles
Ingredients
Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full listing of ingredients, instructions, notes, and estimated nutritional information.
Butter – room temperature for easier mixing. Brown sugar – lends a deep, rich flavor to the recipe. Vanilla extract – I recommend using high-quality vanilla extract rather than vanilla flavoring in this recipe. All-purpose flour – the flour will need to be heat treated to 165º F since the truffles are not cooked or baked. See my recipe tip below or in the recipe card notes on how I heat-treat flour. If you need a gluten-free alternative, use gluten-free flour. Sweetened condensed milk – adds a creamy consistency to the truffles. You can use my homemade sweetened condensed milk recipe or your favorite store-bought. Chocolate chips – use your favorite chocolate chips – dark, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate. You’ll also need chocolate chips to melt for the coating on the truffles. Toffee bits – adds a rich flavor and slight crunch to the truffles. Shortening or coconut oil – for the coating. Sea salt – optional
Storage Tips
To store. Keep truffles in an airtight container in a cool, dry place with a stable temperature. These truffles generally last 2 to 4 weeks when properly stored. To freeze. Place the truffles onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Leave room between each truffle so that they freeze separately. Flash freeze overnight. Place the frozen truffles into a freezer-safe, airtight container and freeze for up to a month. Here’s how I make my cookie dough truffles. Enjoy!Robyn xo
