Preheat oven to 350° F.
Combine butter and brown sugar, beating at medium speed until light and fluffy.
Add melted chocolate, egg, vanilla and milk, mixing well.
Add remaining ingredients (except the confectioners' sugar) and blend well.
Chill dough 1 hour or until firm enough to shape into 1-inch balls, using a rounded teaspoonful for each.
