- Melt chocolate chips and half-and-half together in microwave (at medium-high (70%) for about 1-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until chips are melted) or in double boiler.
- When your mixture is homogenized, drizzle chocolate over candies.
- (You may want to let chocolate mixture cool slighly, but not to the point of solidifying.) Alternately, I believe the balls could be dipped in the sauce.
- Reheat chocolate as needed to keep it liquid.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY BOURBON BALLS
This is kind of a cross between a cookie and a candy. My mom used to make these every year during the holidays when I was a kid, although times were different back then, and since this is no-bake, the alcohol doesn't have a chance to cook off. Yeah, don't give these to the kids! Servings are based on two of these per person... Good luck stopping at two!

HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE BOURBON BALLS (NO BAKE)
Plan ahead the balls need to chill for a minimum or 24 hours to develop flavors, don't even think about serving them before the specified time, they will have less flavor. Rum can be used in place of the bourbon. Make certain to crush the vanilla wafers to very fine. Chilling time is cooking time
