PURE HEAVEN. That's all you really need to know.
I suggest using a metal cookie scoop to form the truffles. I tried a melon baller, tablespoon, and plastic cookie scoop and they were all somewhat difficult to use. Coat your hands in the cocoa powder before hand rolling the truffles.
I suggest making these at least a day before eating so that the wine flavor intensifies. Best consumed on day three for maximum wine flavor. You should be able to keep them for a week but they never last that long!
Coarsley chop chocolate and place into a medium sized bowl.

Use a metal cookie scoop to scoop out a truffle. Coat your hands in cocoa powder and gently roll the chocolate until it forms a ball. Roll in cocoa to coat.
Help! While the chocolate mixtures tastes delicious, the minute I try to roll them into balls, it starts to both crumble and melt at the same time, making almost impossible to form the chocolate into balls. Not sure what I did wrong! Any advice from those of you who have made this recipe successfully?
