pour in the Baileys (or flavouring) and, using a spatula, give it a slow turn of the bowl until the consistency thickens. The texture of the chocolate will start to seize and thicken almost instantly.
Add the honey, a tablespoon at a time, slowly stirring
Chill the bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes or until the truffle mixture has returned to a nearly solid form.
Prepare a clean surface on which to roll out the truffles and sieve three generous tablespoons cocoa powder onto it.
Scrape out a teaspoonful of the mixture into the palm of your hand and roll into a marble-sized ball, then roll this through the cocoa powder until fully coated and pop into a bowl or jar.
Repeat the process
