Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to ya'll!!!!

I pray for safe travels if any of you are going to be on the road!

I also pray that ya'll will remember WHY we are celebrating! I know it's so fun to give, bake, host, and travel from on family to the next to celebrate and get and give gifts, but I HOPE you will remember WHY! Don't get to caught up in all the "hype" and don't worry if you didn't get enough for your family, that's not what it is about! It is all about WHO came and WHY He came! What a joy to think! WOW! It TOTALLY blows my mind!
Thank you Jesus!

Merry CHRISTmas to ya'll!!!

Cookie Dough Truffles

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condense milk
1 cup mini chocolate chips
1 1/2 pounds semi-sweet chocolate chips or candy coating

In large bowl, combine the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla. Add one cup flour and mix thoroughly. Then add half of the milk, beat again. Then add the other cup of flour, beat again, and then add the rest of the milk. Stir in the mini chocolate chips. (you can add walnuts to this if you want) Shape into 1 inch balls and put them on a cookie sheet covered with wax paper. Put them in the frig for about an hour to hour and half.
Melt the chocolate chips and dip each cookie dough into the melted chocolate. Place on a cookie sheet covered with wax paper, put in frig til it hardens.
Drizzle with colored chocolate or the extra chocolate chips.


* I put in about 1 1/2 cups of mini chocolate chips.
I didn't have any colored chocolate to drizzle over the top. Depending on the season, you could do different colors!
I made them a little bit bigger than I wanted too, next time will make them a bit smaller. That way you can just pop the whole thing in your mouth!
