These dense, moist treat are irresistible. Wrapped in a pretty box, they make a great gift, too. Ingredients:
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (about 6 ounces) |
1 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons light corn syrup |
1/2 cup dark rum |
2 1/2 cups finely crushed vanilla wafer cookies (about 10 ounces) |
1 cup finely chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Stir chocolate in top of double boiler set over simmering water until melted and smooth. Remove from over water. Whisk in 1/2 cup sugar and corn syrup, then the rum. Mix vanilla wafers and walnuts in medium bowl to blend; add chocolate mixture and stir to blend well.
2. Place remaining 1/2 cup sugar in shallow bowl. For each rum ball, roll 1 scant tablespoon chocolate mixture into generous 1-inch ball. Roll balls in sugar to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate at leas overnight and up to 5 days.
