I made chocolate truffles as a Christmas tradition for many years. I created this recipe to incorporate my truffles into the center of fudgy cookies. It was a hit with friends and family.-Patricia Harmon, Baden, Pennsylvania

These tarts were easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought cookie dough to save time, and they still tasted amazing.

The truffle filling was a bit too rich for my taste, but the cookie crust was amazing. I might try making these tarts again with a different filling.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tarts turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong kind of truffles. I'll definitely try this recipe again with better ingredients.

These tarts were a bit time-consuming to make, but they were definitely worth the effort. They're perfect for a special occasion or a gift.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tarts turned out a bit dry. I think I might have overbaked them. Next time, I'll keep a closer eye on them in the oven.

These tarts were absolutely divine! The truffle filling is so smooth and creamy, and the cookie crust is the perfect complement. I will definitely be making these again for special occasions.

These tarts were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very enjoyable. I think I would try using a dark chocolate ganache instead of the white chocolate next time.

I'm not a huge fan of truffles, but these tarts were still really good. The cookie crust is so buttery and flaky, and the filling is creamy and rich.

The truffle filling was a bit too strong for my taste, but the cookie crust was delicious. I might try making these again with a different filling.
