Ingredients

  • FOR THE DUSTING
  • ½ cup confectioners’ sugar for dusting
  • FOR THE BATTER
  • 2 cups vanilla wafers 11-ounce box, finely crushed
  • 1 cup pecans finely chopped
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • ¼ cup unsweetened baking cocoa
  • ⅓ cup rum
  • ⅓ cup corn syrup light

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, set aside the 1/2 cup of confectioner's sugar for DUSTING the rum balls after they are rolled.
  • With a mixer on medium speed, beat all the BATTER ingredients until well-blended and it forms a soft dough.
  • Wet your hands and shape small pieces of the dough into one-inch balls the size of walnuts. You may have to re-wet your hands about halfway through.
  • Roll the balls twice in the reserved confectioner’s sugar.
  • Store them covered at room temperature. They keep for 2 weeks.

EXTRA TIP:

REFRESH:  Just before serving, dust them again with confectioner’s sugar for a better presentation.
FREEZING:  You can freeze these in freezer bags for about 2 months.
