Cookie Dough Truffles!

These are awesome! Like eating raw cookie dough? if the answer is yes these are a MUST make for the holidays. There isn't any raw egg so eat to your hearts desire.




Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or Pecans ( I use pecans)
1-1/2 pounds dark chocolate candy coating, coarsely chopped ( large bag of semi sweet morsels works well too)
1/2 stick of gulf wax (this is optional, it helps keep the chocolate from clumping & also make for a shine on the chocolate)

Directions
In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour, alternately with milk, beating well after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
Shape into 1-in. balls; place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Loosely cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until firm.
In a microwave, melt candy coating & gulf wax; stir until smooth. Dip balls in coating; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. If desired, remelt remaining candy coating and drizzle over candies. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 5-1/2 dozen.
