Balls

I have been dubbed the 

Queen of Balls.....

...Oreo Balls.

And while I don't mind the title, I am feeling

a bit penned in. 

My creativity stifled.

My horizons limited.

Predictable.

And so to combat that I present to you;

The Blond Oreo Ball.

(just used the vanilla Oreos)

And the latest in ball creation;

The Cookie Dough Ball!

There are no raw eggs in these so they are

food safe, always a nice touch.

I searched the internet and found virtually the same

recipe at every site so I don't feel like

I am stepping on toes to offer it here.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls

(or truffles if you want to be fancy)

(notice, I am not fancy)

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups flour

14 oz. sweetened condensed milk

1 cup mini chocolate chips

chocolate for dipping.

Cream the butter and sugar.

add in the vanilla and the the flour, milk

and chips.

Chill before rolling and again before dipping.

I took an independent taste poll

and the general consensus was favorable.

The only thing I had issue with was the texture.

Regular cookie dough has a bit of a 

"crunch" from the brown sugar.

I think I creamed these too well. Next time I 

would go a little lighter on the creaming process

and maybe a bit heavier on the brown sugar.

Now then, what else do you suppose I can roll into a ball

and dip in chocolate?

Hmmm....
