Easy no bake red velvet cookie dough truffles, decorated with candy eyes for a fun Halloween treat. These easy cookie dough truffles are made with a edible red velvet cookie dough that is covered in melted white chocolate. They are easy to make, and no baking is needed to make them, just a microwave. They are great for a fun Halloween themed dessert.
The cookie dough is made by first heating the flour and cocoa powder in the microwave for about 40 seconds. It is then mixed with a mixture of butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until a thick dough forms. Add in the red food coloring, and mix until it is fully red. Roll the cookie dough into balls, and place them onto a plate, refrigerate them while you melt the chocolate chips. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well until it is fully melted and smooth. Fully coat each truffle into the melted chocolate. Set them onto a plate, and place one candy eye on each truffle. Let them sit until the chocolate has completely set.
