Preparation steps

1.

Grind the almonds in a blender or food processor until fine. Coarsely chop the dark chocolate and melt in a double boiler or heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Remove from heat and stir in the ground almonds, rum and orange zest. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Beat the butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Slowly add the powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Gradually stir the butter mixture into the cooled chocolate mixture. Refrigerate until completely cooled. 

2.

Finely chop the dark and milk chocolates and mix together in a shallow dish. 

3.

Remove the chocolate mixture from the refrigerator and scoop into portions about 20-25 g (approximately 3/4 ounce), using two teaspoons. Roll each portion with hands to form a ball and roll in the finely chopped chocolate. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for about 6 hours before serving.
