๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿณ Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Heat-Treat the Flour

Spread flour on a baking sheet and bake at 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) for 5 minutes to kill bacteria. Cool completely before using.

Step 2: Make the Dough

In a large bowl, beat together softened butter, brown sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Gradually add the cooled flour and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until a soft dough forms.

Step 3: Add Chocolate Chips

Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 4: Shape and Chill

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into smooth balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or freeze for 15).

Step 5: Melt the Chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

Step 6: Dip the Truffles

Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled dough ball into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Return to parchment paper to set.

Step 7: Chill Again

Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is firm.
