BOURBON BALLS

The sweet kick of bourbon in these confections will transport you straight to Kentucky. We dipped the pieces in a bittersweet chocolate coating and topped them off with crunchy pecan. The result is a Derby-worthy treat you can make and enjoy all year round.

Time 45m

Yield 25 bourbon balls

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cups vanilla wafer cookies (about 8 ounces), such as Nilla Wafers
1 1/4 cups pecan halves
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup bourbon
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch kosher salt
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening
25 pecan halves

Steps:

  • For the bourbon balls: Pulse the vanilla wafer cookies and pecan halves in a food processor until the mixture turns to fine crumbs. Add the cocoa powder, confectioners' sugar, bourbon, corn syrup, vanilla and salt, then pulse until the mixture is thoroughly combined and holds together when squeezed.
  • Scoop the mixture into 1-inch balls (each about 1 tablespoon; about 25 total) on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll each ball between the palms of your hands so they're smooth and compact. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill and firm up slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • For the coating: Meanwhile, put the chocolate and oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high, stirring halfway through, until completely melted and smooth, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Working one a time, use 2 forks to gently lower each bourbon ball into the chocolate mixture, turning to make sure the entire ball is coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off, then return to the baking sheet. Top with a pecan half. Return to the refrigerator until the chocolate is just set, about 5 minutes.

BOURBON BALLS



Bourbon Balls image

I make these for Christmas presents, and for my husband when he gets the cravings for them. Everyone loves them and it's the first thing they ask me at Christmas. "Are you making the Bourbon Balls?" This is one of my biggest requests.

Time 1h15m

Yield 50 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb powdered sugar
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup pecans, finely chopped
2 ounces Bourbon
1 (12 ounce) package milk chocolate chips
2 teaspoons paraffin wax

Steps:

  • Mix the whole pound of sugar and butter together.
  • Add Bourbon and pecan chips, then add extra powdered sugar to your mixture till you are able to roll into balls easily. I usually add up to an extra 1/2 pound, depends.
  • I usually have to let them sit in the fridge for an hour before I roll them, that all depends on how much extra powdered sugar I add.
  • Roll into balls. Put back in the fridge to harden 1 hour or until you get your chocolate melted.
  • Melt Chocolate Chips and Parrifin wax in double boiler. Use milk chocolate or semi sweet chips, whatever your taste. Milk Chocolate can be very sweet. As for the wax, add enough wax to make the chocolate thin and coat easily. 1 package of Chips should coat all the bourbon balls.
  • Dip balls in chocolate, let set up on wax paper.
  • These get better with age. My husband says they are great after they've sat a week. They get stronger tasting as they sit.

BOURBON BALLS



Bourbon Balls image

Bourbon Balls function as the ultimate easy dessert for Southern cocktail parties, and they put a sweet, slightly boozy finish on any get-together. Think of them as an edible digestif. Crushed vanilla wafers hold all the chocolatey goodness together. Buy an 11-ounce box and remove two dozen wafers to save for another use, like Banana Pudding.

Yield 48, serves 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups crushed vanilla wafers (about 8 ounces)
1 cup finely chopped toasted pecans
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, such as Nashville-made Olive & Sinclair 67% cacao chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup bourbon
Optional coatings:
Finely ground vanilla wafers
Finely chopped pecans or other nuts
Dusting of cocoa powder, cinnamon sugar, or confectioner's sugar

Steps:

  • Combine the crushed wafers and pecans in a large bowl. Place the chopped chocolate in a separate bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the cream, corn syrup, and cinnamon, place over medium heat, and bring to just a boil, stirring constantly. Immediately pour the mixture over the chopped chocolate and whisk to blend in the cream as the chocolate melts. Let cool for 1 to 2 minutes, then whisk in the bourbon.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture over the crumb-nut mixture and stir well to combine. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes. Form the mixture into balls with a small melon baller (about 2 teaspoons), roll in coatings if desired, and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 1 week.
