A little home made V-day truffle receipe

Hello my loves,
I know V-day is upon us and we all are probably getting all these emails for sales, free shipping on chocolate blah blah...Well my in laws are big on cooking as a way of showing affection which always won my heart sing when I would come home from work to find that my husband has created an amazing meal for me. And i am not talking about the little easy meal from Rachel ray ( cant stand her) No my husband can cook like Anthony Bourdain, but what i am getting at is a gift that home made or cook has more meaning that some cheap chocolates that aren't very good and didn't take much thought behind them. I vote for the boys to make Truffles which are actual super easy to make, no joke. Here is a super easy recipe Yes it says 2 hrs BUT that is because Truffles need time to rest and set just like bread. which mean make it and let it set. Easy as 1,2,3. Also you can get thoughtful kind of cute stuff at world market to wrap your creation. Everyone win, you look good for making her chocolate related and she gets good chocolate and thinks you are a chef!
 Go forth and make these Truffles for your ladies! and god speed!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

Yield: 3-4 dozen

Prep Time: 1 hour

Total Time: 2 1/2 hours

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup milk or soy milk
1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
14 oz dark chocolate candy coating

Directions:

Beat butter and sugars and in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add soymilk and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt and mix on low speed (or by hand) until incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips.
Cover and chill dough for 1 hour.
When dough is firm enough to handle (it may help to lightly flour your hands), form dough into 1" balls and arrange on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Place sheets in freezer and let chill for 30 minutes.
Melt chocolate candy coating in a double boiler or in microwave according to package directions. Using forks or a dipping tool, dip cookie balls into candy coating to cover. Tap fork on side of pan to remove any excess coating, and return to waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Chill until set. Store, chilled, in an airtight container for up to 1 week (though good luck making them last that long).
