Instructions
Chop the chocolate bars finely and place in a heat-safe bowl.
Heat the cream gently in a small pot, until small bubbles are forming around the edges of the pot.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate, and allow it to stand for 5 minutes.
Whisk the mixture until smooth.
Cool the mixture until solidified.
Scoop 1-tablespoon of the mixture at a time, rolling between palms into a ball shape.
Roll the balls in the coating(s) of your choice, or dip in additional melted chocolate.
