The flavorful filling at the center of these yummy candies tastes like genuine chocolate chip cookie dough...without the worry of raw eggs. That's what makes them so appealing. Plus, they're easy to make. -Lanita Dedon Slaughter, Louisiana

Make them smaller than you think. They are super rich, but delicious in small portions, plus no eggs!

Tasted okay, but the consistency of the "dough" was more like a batter. Even after freezing, it was impossible to keep in the shape of a ball for dipping. As soon as it began to warm to room temperature, the balls flattend out into cookies. It just wasn't worth the time I had to spend trying to make them.

The kids and I made these candies and they LOVED them. I'm not the biggest fan of cookie dough, but these were yummy. I would suggest making them small and allowing time for chilling in the fridge or freezer. If you want to see my photos, I posted them on my blog....

Raw flour, NO. I did the original recipe and had a terrible time forming the truffles(as did Paula Deen if you watch that episode carefully). The dough had to be frozen in order to make the balls. So I did it again but substituted coarsely ground 'krispy rice cereal' for the flour. I also added some oatmeal. That did the trick; I could shape the balls easily and dipping was a breeze.

Easy to make, but need to make sure to make little balls, too big and they are too much to handle!

I made this for my family's annual Christmas cookie baking day and it was a huge hit! Everyone thought they were rich a delicious! I can't wait to make this again!

Excellent! When I make these, I replace the chocolate bark with 2 12-ounce bags of semi-sweet chocolate melted with about 1/2 block of parafin wax (that's been shaved with a knife for quicker melting).

Loved these! I would make them a little smaller and use milk chocolate for the outer shell, but that's just a personal thing.

My hubby actually made these to share with family and friends. They have gone over really well. I agree, they would be better coated with real chocolate, but the almond bark is so easy. I think I will try them next time using the Ghiradelli chocolate as suggested below. My hubby managed to get over 7 dozen truffles from this recipe! All in all, it's a keeper!
