Refrigerate the mixed chocolate until it solidifies (refrigerating overnight is better)

Refrigerate the solidified chocolate, scoop out a small piece with a spoon, then take another spoon, and use the two spoons to exchange each other to shape the chocolate into a rounder shape, but not too round, and then place it on a flat plate
-
Repeat this process, placing the shaped soft chocolate balls into the flat plate
-
Take another 130g of dark chocolate, chop it into pieces, heat over water and stir constantly until completely melted
-
.After the chocolate is melted, cool it down to about the same temperature as the palm of your hand. Use a small spoon to scoop up the soft chocolate balls, put them into the chocolate sauce, and roll them in a circle to coat the surface with a layer of melted chocolate
-
And quickly take it out, put the taken out chocolate ball into the cocoa powder, push the chocolate ball to roll in the cocoa powder, so that the surface is covered with cocoa powder, then take it out and place it on a flat plate
-
Make all the chocolate balls in this way and place them on a flat plate until the chocolate balls are completely hard. Shake off excess cocoa powder and store the chocolate in an airtight container
