Title: Chocolate Bourbon or Rum Balls
Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, S_living
Yield: 60 Servings
6 oz Semisweet chocolate morsels
1/2 c Bourbon
3 tb Light corn syrup
2 1/2 c Vanilla wafer crumbs
1/2 c Sifted powdered sugar
1 c Pecans; finely chopped
Powdered sugar
Melt chocolate morsels in top of double boiler or in
microwave. When smoothly melted, remove from heat and
stir in bourbon and corn syrup. Set aside. Combine
crumbs, powdered sugar and pecans. Mix well. Stir into
chocolate mixture; let stand 30 minutes. Shape into 1"
balls. Roll in sugar. Store in an airtight container
in refrigerator. Yield: about 5 dozen. Got this from
December '84 issue of Southern Living magazine. These
are wonderful--now a holiday tradition at our house!
You can substitute english walnuts for the pecans. You
can also use rum instead of bourbon. I have tried
several combinations, but find the original the best
to my taste.
