Easy Chocolate Chip Cookie Truffles Recipes

EASY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE TRUFFLES RECIPE

Steps:

• Add package of Chocolate Chip cookies to the food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs. Pour crumbs into a bowl, add cream cheese and mix together {I used the back of a spoon but you could use your hands}.
• Roll mixture into 24, 1" balls {I used a medium cookie scoop and then rolled them in my hands} and place onto silicone mat {parchment or wax paper} lined cookie sheet. Freeze for at least 15 minutes.
• While the truffles are in the freezer, place the dark chocolate melting wafers into a heat safe bowl and microwave until melted {I started with 1 minute, stirred and then did 30 second increments}.
• Remove the truffles from the freezer and dip into melted dark chocolate wafers. Garnish with half of a small chocolate chip cookie before the chocolate sets up. Let truffles set completely and enjoy!! Store in an air tight container in refrigerator.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until smooth; add flour and mix until incorporated. Sprinkle salt over dough and fold in chocolate chips. Form dough into 1- to 2-inch balls and arrange on a baking sheet. Freeze until set, about 30 minutes.
• Melt confectioners' chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Dip cookie balls into chocolate and place on a sheet of aluminum foil or waxed paper until hardened, at least 20 minutes.

EASY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Cream the butter and sugars together until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Once combined, stir in the flour, bicarb, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt.
• Scoop 10 large tbsps of the mixture onto the trays, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading. Bake for 10-12 mins or until firm at the edges but still soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few mins before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Microwave the flour in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Microwave for an additional minute or until the temperature reaches 180 degrees F. Sift into a medium bowl, then whisk in the baking soda and salt. Set aside (see Cook's Note).
• Beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, yogurt and vanilla with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until well combined, about 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture, and mix on low speed until well incorporated. (Turn off the mixer and use your hands to help combine if needed.) Fold in 1/3 cup of the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula, or mix them in with your hands.
• Scoop tablespoonfuls of the batter, and roll them into smooth balls. Put them on the prepared baking sheet, and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
• Melt the remaining 2/3 cup chocolate chips and the shortening in a medium microwave-safe bowl in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the coating is smooth and thin. Drop the chilled balls into the coating, and roll them around with a fork to fully coat. Remove each truffle with the fork, letting any excess coating drip off, and return to the baking sheet. (If the coating begins to harden, microwave it for a few seconds to warm it up and thin it out.) Refrigerate the truffles until the coating is completely set, about 1 hour. (The truffles can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.)
