Cookie Dough Truffles

 

Ingredients

• Cake balls
• 1 Box (18.25 oz) chocolate cake mix
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup water
• ⅓ cup oil (or as directed)
• 1 container of frosting
• Chocolate and/or vanilla candy coating (16oz)
• For the cookie dough truffles:
• ½ cup butter softened
• ¾ brown sugar
• 1 t vanilla
• 2 cups flour
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Cool in the refrigerator along with frosting.
2. For the truffles:
3. In a large bowl combine butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Gradually mix in flour alternating with the sweetened condensed milk. Beat well after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips. Shape into ¼ to ½ teaspoon sized balls. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Freeze until ready to use.
4. When cake mix is cold break up cake in to your stand mixer (or by hand). Add about a half a cup of frosting in with your cake mix. Mix until frosting is well incorporated. Using a cookie scoop, form cake batter around each cookie dough ball. Roll until smooth. Place back on cookie sheet and refrigerate while preparing candy coating.
5. In a double broiler with simmering water, melt candy coating until smooth. Carefully roll each cake ball in chocolate with a fork, letting excess chocolate coating drip. Set cake balls back onto baking sheet. Drizzled with extra chocolate.
6. Depending on the size of your cookie dough truffles, you may need two cake mixes.
