It's going to be easier for you to go through the whole procedure when you have all the stuff that you require present. For the ingredients, you need chocolate. Go for dark ones. Get the cream ready, the cocoa powder, and the butter. Have a whisk and a double boiler handy too.

Start by getting the double boiler or the baine marie ready. Have it filled with a liter of water. Get it placed on top of a stove under medium heat. Wait for it to be on a simmer. Then you are going to need to add the pan where the chopped dark chocolate is placed at. Make sure its bottom is not touching the water on the bowl. After the chocolate has been melted, add the cream.

Let the mixture of the melted chocolate and the cream cool down. This is now referred to as a ganache. Once it has completely cooled down, your next step is to add the butter. You will need to get the pan placed back to the double boiler again. Add the butter until it has all been melted. Then, turn the heat off, remove the pan and let it cool. You can chill it first in the refrigerator.

When shaping the ganache, you just need to scoop out small amounts. Shape them into balls. Use your hands to roll them into a rounded shape. Use the cocoa powder that you have prepared to get the rounded ganache properly coated. Serve it afterward or chill it in the refrigerator prior to serving.

When making this dessert, always consider the choco bar that you are using. Only go for high quality ones. Low quality choices tend to have lots of sugar in them and hence, will make the output very grainy. So, only go for high quality ingredients this time.
