Preparation of Chocolate Truffle Base

Melt the Chocolate
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the chocolate.
