Wicked Rum Truffles

I love to cook what I love to eat :D
And chocolate is something I base my entire existence on.

This recipe, in particular is one of my most prized possessions simply because of the way it comes together within minutes to create a finger lickin’ sensation. You have to taste it to know what I'm talking about ;) trust me, you won’t be disappointed. But be warned, this thing packs quite a punch, especially if you go overboard with the rum.
