Cookie Dough Truffles with the cool flavor of Andes mint! These candies are inspired by chocolate chip cookie dough and everyone’s favorite chocolate covered mints.
Ingredients
- 4 ounce cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour **see note
- 1 cup Andes candies morsels (or chopped)
- 12 oz chocolate candy bark, melted
- 12 whole Andes candies, cut into 4 triangles for garnish (cut each mint in half, the each half into two triangles)
Instructions
- In mixer, beat cream cheese with butter. Add in sugar and vanilla and beat until smooth. Beat in flour and salt. Fold in Andes candy.
- Using a small scoop, drop onto a parchment lined baking sheet into small bites. Freeze one hour. Remove from freezer and shape each ball into a nice smooth ball. Using a toothpick, dip each truffle into melted chocolate candy bark, tap side to shake off excess. Top immediately with a small piece of Andes candy.
