These really are delightful melt in the mouth goodies, don’t blame me if you can’t stop popping them in your mouth though. I first saw this recipe on The Recipe Girl and thought they looked amazing. I love the bright white chocolate that she has used to coat her truffles but I have never seen that here in the UK so I used good old Green and Black’s vanilla chocolate as I like the vanilla seeds in it. I know the thought of raw cookie dough is not appealing to all but I promise you it doesn’t even taste of cookie dough, it is a bit like marzipan, strangely.
Being as it is Easter next week, I shaped mine into a sort of egg shape. They would make great little presents and I gave one to a friend and she now wants to make them for her son’s wedding for after the meal.
Ingredients
- 120g soft butter
- 135g light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 240g plain flour- I used Gluten free plain flour
- 1 can condensed milk
- 150g chocolate chips
- approximately 400g assorted chocolate to melt and decorate (I suggest you don’t use cooking chocolate)
- sprinkles etc to decorate
ensure all chocolate, flour and decorations are gluten free if you want the chocolates to be gluten free
Method
- Cream the sugar and butter in a bowl with an electric whisk until smooth.
- Add the vanilla and then beat in the flour a few spoons at a time.
- Beat in the condensed milk .
- Stir in the chocolate chips mixing well.
- Cover the bowl and place in the fridge until the dough is firm, at least 1 hour.
- Place about a teaspoon of the dough once you have formed into desired shape, onto parchment paper and when done put back into fridge until you are ready to coat with chocolate.
- Melt the chocolate one flavour at a time and dip the dough balls into the chocolate to cover. Place on the parchment paper and then chill until set. ( if using sprinkles to decorate put them on before you chill the chocolates)
- Finish the chocolates off by drizzling a different colour chocolate and allow to set once again.
- Eat! Enjoy!
I made about 50 fairly large egg shapes.
