Cookie Dough Truffles (Erin)

 1/2 cup softened butter (unsalted)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 small (4 serving) instant vanilla or chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup nuts (optional)
approx. 2 cups milk chocolate (jersey milk or lindt chocolate bars are great!)

In mixing bowl, cream butter with brown sugar until light and fluffy.  Add flour, condensed milk, pudding  and vanilla.  Mix well.  Stir in mini chips and nuts.  Shape dough into 1-inch balls (smaller is better, as they are very sweet) and place on parchment or wax paper lined tray.  Cover and refrigerate approx 1 hour (or freezer 15-20 minutes).   Melt chocolate and roll balls in it, place back on parchment paper-lined trays, refrigerate.  Take out 15 minutes before serving to let soften a bit.  Can freeze dough balls (before rolling in chocolate) to serve at later date.
