Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup 1 sticks butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 can 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1 pound dark chocolate candy coating

Instructions

  • In a bowl combine butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Beat in the flour, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla until incorporated, beating well after each addition.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until firm enough to handle.
  • Shape mixture into 1 inch balls by rolling a spoonful in the palm of your hand, since the dough is sticky, roll your fingers into flour. This will make it easier to roll.
  • Then shape dough balls into flat little ovals or egg shapes, ( they look much better flat)
  • Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Loosely cover and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes or until firm again.
  • In a bowl melt dark chocolate candy coating.
  • Dip the cookie dough eggs into the chocolate, shake off extra and place on parchment paper.
  • Let the cookie dough eggs sit until hard, about 15 minutes.
  • Store in the refrigerator and serve cold. These can also be frozen for longer storage.
