I found this McCormick recipe in a magazine. McCormick suggest dipping the truffles in two batches as the coldness of the truffles may cause the melted chocolate to harden. Cooking time is chill time.

- 5. After all truffles are dipped. Chill for 1 hour.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is a good option.
- Make sure the cream is cold before whipping it. This will help it whip up quickly and smoothly.
- Don't over-whip the cream. If you whip it too much, it will become grainy.
- Grate the nutmeg finely. This will help it distribute evenly throughout the truffles.
- Work quickly when rolling the truffles. The chocolate will start to melt if you take too long.
- If you're having trouble rolling the truffles, chill them for a few minutes before trying again.
- Store the truffles in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
