    2. Then add in the oats and continue to mix for another minute.
    3. Lastly, add in the remaining ingredients for the cookie dough and mix until everything is combined.
    4. Roll the mixture into balls, place them on a lined baking sheet and stick them in the freezer for a couple minutes.
    5. While the balls are chilling, make the chocolate coating.
    6. Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate and milk together while stirring constantly.
    7. One the chocolate is melted, roll each ball in the chocolate and place them back on the parchment lined baking sheet.
    8. Once all the balls are covered in chocolate, store them in the fridge. They will get way too hard in the freezer.

    Recipe Notes

    Once all the truffles are coated in chocolate, they will need to chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes to set the chocolate coating.
