This is a yummy recipe for rum balls, and it costs a lot less to make than original recipes. I had 4 people try the little balls, and they thought they were great! Ingredients:
3 cups honey-nut toasted oat cereal (such as honey nut cheerios®) |
1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting |
1/2 cup crushed cashews |
1/2 cup crushed almonds |
1/4 cup shredded coconut |
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1/3 cup dark rum, or more as needed |
3 tablespoons light corn syrup |
Directions:
1. Place oat cereal, confectioners' sugar, cashews, almonds, coconut, and cocoa powder in a food processor; blend to an even crumb texture.
2. Stir rum and corn syrup together in a bowl; add cereal mixture. Stir until dough holds together. Add more rum if dough is dry. Form into balls and place on a plate.
3. Chill rum balls in the refrigerator for flavors to blend, at least 1 hour. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving.
