I wanted to make chocolate chip cookies, but they spread out way too much and i found them unacceptable to bring into work, so I decided to crush them up, make them into truffles and stuff them into dark chocolate cookies. 

The truffles were pretty easy to make and I think stuffing them in cookies was a pretty good idea.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  The same goes for the baking cocoa.  I also recommend freeze the cookie doughs once they are stuffed to keep them puffy.

• Truffles ingredients
• Chocolate chip cookies, finely crushed
• 4 ounces cream cheese softened

Directions – in a bowl, mix well.  Scoop out 1 tbs and roll into balls.  Freeze an hour.

• Cookies ingredients
• 5 tbs butter, softened
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/3 cups dark chocolate chips, melted (i put the chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwaved them in 45 second increments until I could stir smooth)

1 cup plus 1 tbs flour

1/4 cup baking cocoa

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter, sugar and brown sugar.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Stir in melted chocolate.  Blend in dry ingredients.  Scoop out 1 tbs dough and slightly flatten.

Place a chocolate chip cookie truffle on trop

Scoop out another tbs dough and slightly flatten.  Place on top of truffle.

Seal edges.  

Chill doughs a few hours.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a cookiensheet with nonstick baking liners or parchment paper.  Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 11 to 13 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely.   Store in covered container.
