How to Make Limoncello Truffles:

Makes 35-40 Hand Rolled Truffles

Warm the cream in the microwave.
Add the cream to the Sao Thome Origin dark chocolate and stir to form a nice ganache
Then add the limoncello and lemon zest.
Leave to set in the fridge (This may take up to 3 hours)
Once set take out of the fridge, and with a teaspoon take enough ganache to make the required truffle size.
Roll into a circle and coat the truffles in the Milk Chocolate Splitters
Pop the truffles back in the fridge after rolling to set further
