I made chocolate chip cookie dough truffles. Here are some photos of one.
(By chance the one I cut open for this makes it look like there aren't many chocolate chips in there, but that isn't the case.)
The chocolate doesn't look great because I don't have a sugar thermometer, so my approach to melting chocolate is literally just to heat it until it's liquid. It works fine for stuff like this (it tastes fine at least) but I can't temper chocolate or make it look shiny after it sets.
