- In a mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.

Step 3: Form and Chill the Truffles
- Scoop out 1-inch balls of dough and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
- Freeze for 30 minutes until firm.
Step 4: Melt the Chocolate
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Step 5: Dip and Set
- Using a fork, dip each cookie dough ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring even coverage.
- Place back on the parchment-lined tray and sprinkle with sea salt, sprinkles, or extra chocolate chips before the chocolate sets.
