Chocolate Rum Wafers Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the crushed vanilla wafers, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, cocoa, and nuts. Blend in corn syrup and rum.
• Shape into 1 inch balls, and roll in additional confectioners' sugar. Store in an airtight container for several days to develop the flavor. Roll again in confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:

• Melt chocolate over very low heat or in a double boiler. Add corn syrup and alcohol (REMOVE FROM HEAT SOURCE AND BE VERY CAREFUL WITH ALCOHOL AND AN OPEN FLAME).
• In a large bowl, combine crushed wafers, powdered sugar and one cup of the chopped nuts. Add chocolate mixture to the crumb mixture and stir well.
• Let stand 30 minutes and then stir again. Shape into 1" balls then roll into remaining nuts. Store in a very tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for at least 3 days for best flavor.

Steps:

• Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt and set aside. Blend the sugar and margarine and beat in the rum and egg substitute. Stir in the flour mixture and mix well. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in clear plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for one hour. Roll the dough on a lightly floured board to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut the cookies with a cookie cutter and place on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake for 8 minutes at 400 degrees, remove with a spatula and cool on a wire rack.
