Finely chop the chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl. Heat the cream in a saucepan over medium heat until simmering and pour it over the chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth to form ganache.
Mix in cherry puree and cherry liqueur to the ganache, stirring vigorously until fully blended.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours until firm.
Scoop portions of ganache, roll into 1-inch balls, and set aside.
Roll the truffles in cocoa powder or chopped nuts until evenly coated and place on a parchment-lined tray.
Chill the coated truffles for an additional 30 minutes before serving.
