While the bonbons are freezing, prepare the chocolate coating.

Stir frequently until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. (10 minutes)

Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature, or for faster setting, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for a few minutes. Once the chocolate is firm, the bonbons are ready to serve and enjoy. (30 minutes)
For a richer flavor, use high-quality European-style butter.
Toasting the walnuts enhances their flavor and adds a pleasant crunch.
Ensure the chocolate is completely melted and smooth for an even coating.
If the chocolate starts to thicken during dipping, add a small amount of coconut oil (or shortening) to thin it out.
Store the finished bonbons in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
