Notes
Pro Tips
> Keep an eye on your chocolate while melting, do not let it over heat as this will make your chocolate grainy.
> Do not whisk the mixture together, use a spoon and patiently mix all the ingredients until combined, you don’t want to add air but just ensure all the ingredients are mixed through.
> If the mixture is sticking to your hands too much wear gloves or oil your hands a little.
> You can dip the set truffles into melted chocolate instead of rolling them in cocoa powder as well.
