Notes
Chill the rolled truffles for 15-20 minutes before dipping for best results.
Use a deep, narrow bowl for melting chocolate to make dipping easier.
When drizzling, a tiny snip on the piping bag corner gives better control.
Don’t overheat the chocolate; melt in short intervals and stir frequently.
Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
