Cocoa-laden no-bake chocolate balls laced with a bold red wine make a delicious and pretty Valentine's Day treat. They're even tastier the next day. These make a nice centerpiece when served in a decorative wine glass. Ingredients:
3 1/4 cups crushed vanilla wafers |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
3 tablespoons corn syrup |
1/2 cup full-bodied red wine (cabernet sauvignon, cotes du rhone, zinfandel, shiraz or barolo) |
1 cup red decorator sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the vanilla wafers, confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, corn syrup and red wine. Mix with a sturdy spoon or your hands until it becomes a uniform dough. Shape into 1 inch balls and roll in red decorator sugar. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Allow to come to room temperature before serving. |
