# Instructions:

09 - Roll the chocolate balls in the sanding sugar till they're completely covered.
10 - Place each sugar-coated truffle gently onto the tray lined with parchment.
11 - Continue shaping and coating till you've used up all the chocolate mix.
12 - Put the finished truffles back in the fridge for another hour so they fully set.
13 - Keep the completed truffles in a sealed container stored in the fridge.
