Chocolate Truffles

200g good quality dark chocolate

200ml double cream
Cocoa powder
100g milk or white chocolate
Chopped nuts (optional)
Break up the dark chocolate into a bowl. Set aside.
Bring the double cream to the boil and then stir into the
dark chocolate. Let it melt together and keep whisking
until it gets thick and glossy.
Leave in the fridge until set.
Use a teaspoon to scoop out the set mixture and roll
into small balls. Roll them into the cocoa powder to
coat the outside. Leave to set for a few minutes.
They are good to eat like this, but if you like, melt the
milk or white chocolate and roll the truffles into it, and
then roll in chopped nuts if you wish.
Leave to set then put in little paper cups.
