This is an easy recipe for rum balls that can be made in a short amount of time and get better with age. The strength of the rum determines if the kids get any or just the adults. I've used regular rum, coconut flavored rum and 151 proof rum in this recipe and all work great. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package vanilla wafers, crushed very fine |
2 cups ground pecans |
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 (12 ounce) package miniature semisweet chocolate chips |
1 cup corn syrup |
1/2 cup rum |
confectioners' sugar for rolling |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl combine crushed vanilla wafers, ground pecans, cocoa and chocolate chips. Stir in corn syrup and rum; mix well into a thick dough.
2. Coat palms of hand with confectioners' sugar and roll dough into balls no larger than a quarter. Place on a cookie sheet, foil or wax paper to dry.
3. Let balls dry for 1 hour. Roll in confectioners' sugar and seal in airtight containers.
