4 Squares Chirardelli Dark Chocolate 86%

- Roll each ball in melted chocolate
-  Place chocolate covered ball back on the waxed paper

This recipe arose out of a need to bring portable protein snacks snowboarding! I wrapped the truffles individually with waxed paper, then aluminum foil. I kept them in a ziplock bag in my pocket. They were great!
