To make truffles, place Maltesers in a medium snap-lock bag. Seal. Gently pound with a rolling pin until coarsely crushed. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in almonds.

Stir half the Malteser mixture into chocolate mixture. Freeze for about 1 hour, or until firm. Â
Roll level tablespoons of mixture into balls. (Makes about 30.)Â Roll in remaining Malteser mixture, pressing on firmly to coat. Place truffles on a tray lined with baking paper. Refrigerate for 2 hours, until firm.
