Title: Easy Peasy Cookie Dough Truffles
Ingredients:
– 1 package of refrigerated cookie dough (any flavor)
– 1 cup of chocolate chips
– 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
– Optional toppings: chopped nuts, sprinkles, cocoa powder
Instructions:
1. Begin by preheating your oven to the temperature indicated on the cookie dough package.
2. While the oven is heating up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough and roll it into a small ball. Place the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each one.
4. Bake the cookie dough balls according to the package instructions until they are just set and slightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.
5. Once the cookie dough balls have cooled, place them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
6. In the meantime, prepare the chocolate coating by melting the chocolate chips with vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth and glossy.
7. Take the cookie dough balls out of the refrigerator. Using a fork or toothpicks, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it evenly. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing it back on the baking sheet.
8. If desired, sprinkle your truffles with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or dust them with cocoa powder while the chocolate is still wet.
9. Once all the truffles are coated and decorated, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to let the chocolate set completely.
10. Store your cookie dough truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy these delightful bites of sweetness!
