Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 100ml double cream
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder, for rolling

Method

  1. Put the chopped chocolate into a heatproof bowl.
  2. Heat the cream in a small saucepan until just simmering, then pour it over the chocolate. Leave for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
  3. Stir in the orange zest.
  4. Chill the mixture for at least 2 hours, until firm enough to scoop.
  5. Roll tablespoons of the mixture into 16 balls, then roll each one in cocoa powder to coat. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
