Chocolate Rum Balls
Make these jet-black, no-bake confections at least a week in advance to give flavors time to mellow.
Ingredients
- 1 package Famous chocolate wafers
- 1 cup pecans, toasted in 350° oven for 10 minutes
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- Dash salt
- 1/2 cup cocoa (not Dutch process), divided
- 1/4 cup dark rum
- 3 tablespoons dark corn syrup
Instructions
- Combine wafers, pecans, powdered sugar, salt and 1/4 cup cocoa in food processor. Pulse until wafers and nuts are crumbs - it's OK if there are a few pieces the size of small corn kernels. Add rum and dark corn syrup and pulse until combined. Sift remaining cocoa in a large bowl. Form 1-inch balls by hand and drop in bowl with cocoa. Roll around in cocoa to cover. Store in covered tin.
