Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • ½ cup Butter (softened)
  • ¾ cups Packed Brown Sugar
  • 2 cups All purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk (Don't scrape the sides of the can)
  • 1 cup M&M’s Milk Chocolate (chopped)

Chocolate Coating

  • 12 oz Chocolate chips
  • 3 tablespoon Coconut oil (can substitute vegetable shortening)

Instructions

Cookie Dough

  • Using a stand mixer (or large bowl and hand mixer) beat the butter and brown sugar together till light and fluffy, then mix in vanilla extract.
  • Slowly incorporate flour into the mixture then add condensed milk, without scraping the sides of the can to ensure the proper final texture.
  • Finally, mix in the chopped bits of M&M’s, reserving some to sprinkle on top if desired.
  • Form dough into 1-2" balls (or egg shaped for Easter) and place on parchment line baking sheet, cover loosely with plastic wrap and let firm up in the refrigerator for at least two hours. (Can sit overnight if needed)

Chocolate Coating

  • Place chocolate chips in microwave, or double boiler, and heat till melted. Stirring occasionally.
  • Add coconut oil and stir in till fully melted and incorporated.
  • While chocolate is still warm dip cold cookie dough into the chocolate to coat evenly and let the excess chocolate drain off. Using a fork or toothpicks works best.
  • Sprinkle additional chopped M&M’s on top if desired.
  • Refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until chocolate hardens.

Notes

I don't recommend scraping the sides of the can of condensed milk since the cookie dough's texture and firmness is perfect without doing so.
