Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough Balls

A friend at work brought in these Chocolate covered cookie dough balls and I knew I had to have the recipe.  I made them last weekend to bring to our family get together and they sold like hot cakes.  These are so easy and delicious that I will definitely make them again.  They do make a lot (around 30-40 balls) so I highly suggest making them for a group of people or you will end up eating them all yourself!
