RUM BALLS



Rum Balls image

I wanted a good rum ball with a lot of kick, so I sat down and came up with this recipe. I didn't realize how good these were until one year I didn't make them for work. I just about got lynched! Needless to say, I've made them every year since (about 20 years). These are best if you use Meyers Original Dark Rum® chilled, and Nabisco® 'Nilla wafer cookies. They are at their peak if you make them 2 days in advance. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before serving.

Time 1h10m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (12 ounce) box vanilla wafer cookies (such as Nilla®)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup light corn syrup
¾ cup dark rum (such as Meyer's®)
1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting

Steps:

  • Place vanilla cookies in a food processor and process into fine crumbs.
  • Heat chocolate chips and corn syrup together in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring often, until chocolate is melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rum and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in cookie crumbs; dough will be sticky.
  • Place saucepan in the refrigerator until dough is firm and easy to roll, about 15 minutes. Cover 2 plates with waxed paper; dust with confectioners' sugar.
  • Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on the prepared plates. Dust rum balls with confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove rum balls from refrigerator and transfer to a resealable bag, including the extra confectioners' sugar. Seal the bag and shake to coat the rum balls completely with confectioners' sugar.

Provided by Debby Mayne

Categories     Desserts and Sweet Treats

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2-1/2 cups of crushed vanilla wafers
3/4 cup of powdered sugar
1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
3/4 cup of chopped pecans
3 tablespoons of corn syrup (light or dark)
1/2 cup of rum (or 1/4 cup of rum flavoring + 1/4 cup of water - see notes)
Additional powdered sugar for the coating

Steps:

  • In a food processor, crush the vanilla wafers until they are fine crumbs.
  • Combine the crushed vanilla wafers, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, chopped pecans, corn syrup (not corn starch), and rum.
  • Stir until mixed. I used my hands because it's much easier.
  • Pinch off pieces and roll them into balls the size of a large marble. Roll each on in powdered sugar.
  • Set them aside on a plate. Let them rest for about 10 minutes and then roll them in a second coating of powdered sugar.
  • It's best to wait a few hours before eating. It takes a little while for all of the flavors to bloom.
