Fudge Filling
    Cup of Yum
  1. Melt chocolate chips in microwave by heating the chips in a microwaveable bowl for 30 seconds.  Stir.  Continue heating in 30 second increments until the chips are all melted. 
  2. Stir in milk and vanilla. Mix well. Warm thoroughly. 
  3. Put filling in ziplock bag, cut the corner, and squeeze to fill each cookie with fudge.

Notes

  • Because the chocolate fudge filling is not completely hardened, you will want to make sure not to layer these cookies on top of one another. Place in an airtight container to keep them soft and chewy. They should last about five to seven days if they are sealed properly. These cookies do not need to be refrigerated but can be to help keep their freshness.
