Good to know

If your hands gets coated with the dough, it helps to wet your hands with COLD water. That will help you make the balls easier. For the melted chocolate i use a bain Marie, but microwave works very well as well. Often i use a normal 72% square of chocolate or a chili chocolate to coat. completely up to you., but feel free to experiment.
