VIENNESE COFFEE BALLS (NO BAKE)

Steps:

• Combine crushed cookies, the 1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar, the nuts, cocoa powder, coffee crystals and cinnamon.
• Add brewed espresso, coffee or water, using just enough to moisten.
• Form mixture into 1 1/4-inch balls.
• Roll balls generously in the 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar.
• Place balls on a sheet of waxed paper; let stand until dry (about 1 hour).
• Before serving, roll balls again in confectioners' sugar, if desired.

IRISH COFFEE BALLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the cookie crumbs, pecans and 1 cup of sugar.
• Dissolve coffee granules in the Irish Whiskey in a small cup.
• Add the coffee/whiskey mixture and the corn syrup to the dry ingredients, mixing until blended.
• Shape mixture into 1-inch balls and roll in the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar.

GRAND MARNIER CHOCOLATE COOKIE BALLS (NO BAKE)

Steps:

• In very large bowl, combine wafer crumbs, cocoa, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly.
• Add corn syrup, orange extract, and Grand Marnier and stir until large ball forms. If too crumbly add small amounts of corn syrup or liqueur until mixture sticks together well.
• Roll in your hands to form into 1 inch balls (I used a small cookie scoop and then rolled into balls).
• Roll balls in granulated sugar and place on wax-paper lined tray.
• Store in airtight container for a few days to build flavor. Place wax paper between layers of cookie balls to prevent sticking together.
• If desired, can roll in powdered sugar or cocoa instead of granulated sugar. If sugar disappears while balls are being stored, roll again in sugar before serving.
