Amaretto Balls Recipes

Steps:

• Crush cookies by hand or in plastic bag. Place onto a sheet pan. Dampen the cookie crumbs with the liqueur. Scoop ice cream balls onto the sheet pan and roll around until covered. Place the balls into a serving dish and top with chocolate sauce and whipped cream.

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, over low heat, melt chocolate chips with the sweetened condensed milk.
• Stir in amaretto and almond extract.
• Chill for 2 hours.
• Shape into 3/4" balls and roll in nuts.
• Chill until firm.
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container.
• Flavor will improve after 24 hours.
• You can adjust the amount of amaretto to your taste, depending on how strong you want the taste.

Steps:

• Blend all the ingredients together and shape into 30 one-inch balls.
• If the mixture turns out too wet/dry, balance it out by adding more powdered (icing) sugar to dry it out or more liquor to moisten it up.
• Roll the balls in extra powdered sugar, cocoa powder or chocolate milk powder.
• Store in an airtight container for at least one week before sampling.
• I have also successfully stored them in the refrigerator and in the freezer.

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with an S blade, grind vanilla wafers and toasted sliced almonds to very fine crumbs. Add 1 1/2 c. confectioners sugar and salt, process until well blended.
• Mix amaretto and extracts in a measuring cup with a pour spout. Stir to blend. Turn on processor and pour the amaretto mixture through the feed tube while machine is running.
• When the mixture is thoroughly moistened and with processor running, pour in the corn syrup and process until the mixture forms a cohesive ball. Check to see if the mixture is moist enough to shape. (It might be sticky, but needs to hold together when shaped) If it is a little dry, drizzle in more corn syrup a Tbsp at a time until easily rolled. Remove the "dough" from the processor, form a flattened log on plastic wrap, roll tightly and refrigerate overnite. (You may form the balls now, but handling is easier when it has chilled.)
• Remove dough from fridge and let sit out until it is warm enough to shape easily. Form into nickle sized balls and roll in powdered sugar. Store in fridge in an airtight container. When ready to serve, roll in sugar again and let warm to room temp.

Steps:

• 1. Crush cookies, chop nuts, and put all ingredients together.
• 2. Form walnut size balls.
