Chocolate truffles
-
3Warm the cream to near boiling, then add in the chopped chocolate, shaking the saucepan to settle the chocolate into the cream. Cover with a tea towel for 5-7 minutes until the chocolate has melted. Whisk until smooth, then cool until firm – about 1-2 hours.

Notes
The firmness of these treats comes from fats solidifying (coconut oil or chocolate), so when delivering to friends, make sure they're chilled and don't leave them in a hot car!
