  I have made these truffles twice now. They are so easy to do, tase amazing and look stunning because you can roll them in pretty much anything. Excellent at the end of a meal with a coffee or put into a decorative box as a gift for your host. The second time I made them I rolled them in choped nuts and then sprayed them with edible gold and silver.

  I made these to take to a New Year's Eve party. Rolled some in chopped hazelnuts, rolled some in popping candy and sprayed them gold, rolled others in cocoa and edible glitter. Quick and easy to make, delicious and pretty. Will definitely make again.

  Made these as part of a Christmas hamper for a friend plus lots of extras for family and work colleagues, and they went down very well! I made these as well as the other mint and coconut truffle recipes that are on here, decorated half the batch and froze the other half (without any decorations) in tuppaware boxes spaced out on baking parchment. Froze for about a week, defrosted in the fridge the day I needed them (which didn't long at all!) and just before I needed to decorate them I got them out the fridge to bring them to room temperature (that didn't take long either!). Although messy, it was great fun and I actually found it easier to handle the truffle balls slightly in my hands to "reactivate" the stickiness as I found the truffles picked up the decorations much better for a better coating.

  Also... Originally used a melon ball spoon which works great though get stuck in their with your hands! Used half milk choc, half dark 70% choc, both green and blacks, better chocolate definitely gives a better taste! Rolled them in various different coloured sprinkles and looked really pretty and are perfect for prezzies. Enjoy! :)
