- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 2 1/4 cups chocolate chips

Instructions:
-
Cream the Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, margarine, and confectioners’ sugar. Beat until light and fluffy, ensuring a smooth texture.
-
Incorporate Flavor: Add the sour cream and vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat until well combined, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually incorporate the flour into the mixture, ensuring it is well combined. Then, gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Chill the Dough: Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This step helps firm up the dough, making it easier to handle and shape.
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325ยฐF (163ยฐC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
-
Shape the Cookies: Once the dough has chilled, roll it into 1-inch balls using your hands. For an extra touch of indulgence, you can roll the balls in chocolate sprinkles to coat them evenly.
-
Bake to Perfection: Place the shaped cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart to allow for spreading. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, indulge in the irresistible chocolaty goodness of these truffle cookies!
These Chocolate Truffle Cookies are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but they can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for several days.
