Ingredients

* 1 tablespoon (tbsp) = 15 ml, 1 teaspoon (tsp) = 5 ml

Instructions
- Gradually heat the whipping cream using a bain-marie (hot water bath).
- Meanwhile, break the chocolate bars into small pieces. We recommend using dark bittersweet chocolate but you can also use sweet or milk chocolate.
- Stir the whipping cream with a spatula 2 to 3 times. Just before it begins to boil, remove and place onto a trivet. Add the chocolate pieces to the cream.
- Mix thoroughly and dissolve the chocolate. We used 36% fat whipping cream for this recipe. The light whipping cream has a rich flavor and also causes less separation. Gently mix to keep it from separating.
- When it is smooth, add the brandy or rum and continue to mix.
- Remove the bowl from the bain-marie and allow it to sit to cool. When cooled, firm up the chocolate completely in the fridge or freezer.
- The nama chocolate is completely firm. Using a spoon, shape the chocolate into a small ball and then place it into a glassine paper candy cup.
- Repeat the process and now you have 4 pieces of nama chocolate. Sprinkle on the cocoa powder.
- Finally, place them into a truffle box.
