Step 1: In a heatproof bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Alternatively, you can microwave the chocolate and cream in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Once fully combined, refrigerate the mixture for 1-2 hours, or until it is firm enough to scoop.
Step 2: Use a small cookie scoop or a teaspoon to portion out the chilled chocolate mixture. Roll each portion between your palms to form a smooth ball. Then, roll the truffles in the unsweetened cocoa powder to coat them evenly. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
