truffles make the perfect gift

1/4 cup heavy cream
8 oz bittersweet chocolate chips
6 tbsp butter
1/4 cup cocoa

In a saucepan, bring the cream to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate and butter stirring until chocolate is completely melted and well blended. Pour chocolate mixture in a shallow container and refrigerate until firm. Line a container with waxed paper. Dip a melon baller in warm water and scrape it across the surface of the cold truffle mixture to form a 1/2-inch ball. Drop the ball into the cocoa and repeat with the rest of the mixture. Roll the chocolate balls around the cocoa until well coated.
