• OR, refrigerate balls for 1 hour and then dip in melted chocolate; return to refrigerator to set chocolate.
• Store in airtight container in refrigerator.
• NOTE: If you want to make a non-alcoholic version, just substitute Kahlua flavored syrup, which can be found in the coffee section of most supermarkets.
