4. Add the rum and mix vigorously until all the ingredients are well incorporated and you have a smooth shiny mixture. Set aside uncovered at room temperature for 1 to 1½ hours until the mixture has firmed up. 5. Line a baking sheet with clingfilm or parchment paper. Dust your hands with icing sugar, then take a teaspoonful of the chocolate mixture and roll into a ball about the size of a small walnut. 6.Roll the ball in the cocoa powder or chocolate vermicelli/flakes to coat on all sides and place on the lined baking sheet. Repeat until all the mixture has been used up, spacing the balls on the baking sheet so they don't touch each other. Place in the refrigerator for 4-8 hours until set. Once set, keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
