Truffle Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies
Welcome to heaven! These cookies are chewy, gooey gooey, chocolatey, buttery, and amazingly delicious. Of all the cookies I made, this has got to be my favorite. This is the chocolate chip cookie recipe that makes the other ones look bad. Give it a bite and you’ll see what I mean.
Oh and don’t worry, they are super easy to make! I’ve been perfecting my chocolate chip cookie for a long time and now it is ready to take in some companions. This summer I made Nutella Chocolate Chip cookies – they were amazing! But now they have some serious competition with chocolate truffles.
One of my favorite truffle brands is Lindt. I used the milk chocolate one but you can use any brand or flavor you may like. It melts beautifully in the oven and stays fudgy on the inside combined with the regular semi-sweet chocolate chips. Perfection!
This Truffle Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies idea came to me in bed last night. I’ve been waiting to come up with a good cookie idea and finally, I had an AHA Moment!
Why don’t I stuff a chocolate-filled truffle inside chocolate chip cookie dough? I was afraid it would seep out in the oven and become a big mess. Thankfully it worked! The cookies browned beautifully on the outside and the center stayed ooey gooey and chewy.
So here’s what I did: I grabbed a tablespoon of my chocolate cookie dough and flattened it with the palms of my hands. Then I placed a chocolate truffle in the middle. Finally, I rolled it up so the truffle stayed sealed inside the dough.
Then I place the stuffed cookies on a sheet pan and in the oven, they go for just 10 minutes. See how they look like balls. The aroma in your house will even draw the neighbors to your home. Consider yourself warned. 😉

Dear Tiffany
Do you think it would work to add nuts to the cookie dough? Should I add the nuts or substitute something else?
And should I chill the dough?
Any help is appreciated, thanks

Hi Helen! yes, you can add nuts, the only thing is that the nuts may make it a bit difficult to stuff the truffles. A suggestion is to chop them finely. And for this recipe, there’s no need to chill the dough.
