    Title: Truffle-Filled Cookie Tarts
    Categories: Chocolate, Dairy, Desserts
    Yield: 30 servings

    1/2 c Butter; softened
    1/2 c Sugar
    1/2 c Packed brown sugar
    1 lg Egg; room temp
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    1 1/2 c A-P flour
    1/3 c Baking cocoa
    1/4 ts Baking soda

    MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    2 c Semisweet chocolate chips
    2/3 c Heavy whipping cream
    1/4 c Butter; diced
    2 lg Egg yolks
    Chocolate sprinkles

    Set oven @ 400-|F/205-|C.

    In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars until blended.
    Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour,
    cocoa and baking soda; gradually beat into creamed
    mixture.

    Shape level tablespoons of dough into 2 1/2" wide
    patties. Press onto bottoms and up the sides of greased
    mini-muffin cups.

    Bake until set, 8-10 minutes. Immediately press a deep
    indentation in center of each with the end of a wooden
    spoon handle. Cool in pans 5 minutes. Remove to wire
    racks to cool completely.

    For filling, in a small heavy saucepan, combine
    chocolate chips, cream and butter; cook and stir over
    medium heat until smooth. Remove from heat.

    In a small bowl, whisk a small amount of hot mixture
    into egg yolks; return all to pan, whisking constantly.
    Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture
    is thickened and a thermometer reads at least
    160-|F/71-|C, 15-17 minutes. Do not allow to boil.
    Immediately transfer filling to a bowl; cool 20 minutes,
    stirring occasionally.

    Spoon 1 tablespoon filling into each crust. Top with
    sprinkles. Refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
