50g. chocolate, broken into pieces, melted

chocolate sprinkles





Method:





1. Place cake crumbs, melted chocolate, grounds almonds, ginger and


rum in a mixing bowl and stir ingredients until evenly mixed. Using a


teaspoon, take heaped spoonsful of mixture and roll into a ball in your

a time.
