The perfect sweet to go with coffee at the end of a meal.

Combine raisins and rum in small bowl. Soak for at least 1 hour.
Melt chips, cream and butter in top of double boiler over low heat, stirring constantly until melted and smooth. Remove from heat; stir in rum-raisin mixture. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or until firm enough to handle.
Shape into one inch balls using a scoop or teaspoon and roll in cocoa to coat surface. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
