You have to make sure that you know how to get this done.

Before you start, see to it that you have the right ingredients ready. You will only need a few. First, you are going to need to have dark chocolate, cream, cocoa powder, and unsalted butter. Make sure that the equipment that you are going to use is ready too. For this, you are going to need pans, a double boiler, a whisk, and plates. They should be ready and set so you get the task done efficiently.

You need to melt the chocolate first. You will use the double boiler for this purpose. Add water to the double boiler and have it placed on a stove at medium heat. Wait until the water has reached a simmer. Place the pan with melted choco on top and stir using the whisk until it starts melting. You will then need to slowly add the cream to the mixture.

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 you are ready to get the ganache shaped, get the cocoa powder ready. Have it place din a shape in generous amounts. Get the ganache. Scoop out a tablespoon out of the mixture. Form it into a ball using your hands. Then, have it coated with cocoa powder generously. Arranged it on a serving plate. It is ready for the party.

Do use the right quality chocolate for this purpose. Try to avoid those cheaper, overly sweet ones. They tend to make the mixture grainy which makes them a little unpleasant to the taste. Go for really good dark choco brands to get great results.
