Hey!
Matt makes gorgeous chocs.
My faves are his white choc and baileys truffles - this year he is making them as xmas pressies and making boxes for them! (i do sometimes wonder whether he is straight, lmao).

i'll try and find the recipe

There's a lovely looking recipe in this month's Asda magazine (free at checkout).

Ooooh I've just found it here you go:

• Break 225g Asda Dark Chocolate into pieces and put in a bowl over a pan of simmering water to melt.
  
  Remove the bowl from the pan and stir in 150ml double cream and 2tbsp Cointreau or rum. Leave until cold and then chill for at least 1 hour.
  
  Line a baking tray with baking paper. Using two teaspoons, shape the chocolate mixture into rough balls and put on the prepared baking tray. Chill for a further 30 minutes.
  
  Roll the truffles in icing sugar or cocoa to coat them all over. Keep them in the frige and eat within the week.

Yum!

I used to work with a chef who had her own business making truffles. She's just lovely and her truffles are AMAZING. They taste wonderful and they're the size of golf balls. I don't have a recipe but her site is www.fionasfayre.com and if you email her I'm sure she'll have some sort of genius to share!

My OH uses something like that Asda recipe.

He always chills them in the freezer as it's mega quick!

He also dips them in melted choc once they've set for a nice crispy outside!
