I tried making these chocolate rum balls but they didn't turn out well. I think I used the wrong kind of chocolate.

These chocolate rum balls are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think next time I'll use less sweetener.

I love the chocolate rum balls, but I think they would be even better if they were rolled in chopped nuts.
