Hazelnut Chocolate Bourbon Balls No Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the hazelnuts on a small rimmed baking sheet and bake until toasted and golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper; set aside.
• Combine the confectioners' sugar, rice cereal and salt in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the chocolate-hazelnut spread and butter. Pulse until the mixture begins to form clumps and holds together when squeezed.
• Roll teaspoons of the mixture into balls, pressing a hazelnut into the center of each so the top of the nut is still visible; place on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze until firm, about 20 minutes.
• Put the chocolate and shortening in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth. Gently stick a toothpick into the upper half of a candy, avoiding the hazelnut, and dip the bottom half into the melted chocolate. Allow the excess chocolate to drip into the bowl and return the dipped candy to the baking sheet. Remove the toothpick and smooth the hole with your fingertip. Repeat with the remaining candies. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring about 1 inch of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over the saucepan, making sure that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Let the chocolate sit until melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, put the cookies in a food processor and process until finely ground (you should have about 1 1/2 cups crumbs). Pour the cookie crumbs into the chocolate. Add the figs, confectioners' sugar, bourbon, condensed milk and vanilla and stir until well blended.
• Cover and refrigerate the mixture until firm enough to roll into balls, about 45 minutes. Spread the granulated sugar in a shallow bowl. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and shape into a smooth ball and then roll in the granulated sugar. Serve at room temperature.
• Store the balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a week or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup pecans and bourbon; let stand, covered, for 8 hours or overnight., Cream butter and confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, until crumbly; stir in pecan mixture. Refrigerate, covered, until firm enough to shape, about 45 minutes. Shape into 1-in. balls; place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour., Dip in chocolate coating; allow excess to drip off. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup pecans. Let stand until set.

Steps:

• Place wafers and pecans in food processor and pulse till crumbly.
• Add remaining ingredients and pulse till smooth.
• Shape into balls about 1 inch in diameter.
• Roll in powdered sugar and chill.
• This mixture is sticky, so keep finger and palms of hands dusted with sugar while shaping cookies.
• It helps if hands and kitchen is cool.

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese, melted chocolate chips and Nutella until blended. Stir in cracker crumbs. Refrigerate until firm enough to roll, about 30 minutes., Shape mixture into 1-in. balls; roll in chopped hazelnuts. Make an indentation in the center of each with the end of a wooden spoon handle. Fill with a hazelnut. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a medium size bowl mix together the vanilla crumbs, bourbon, cocoa and corn syrup until well combined.
• Shape into small balls (using about 1 tablespoon mixture for each ball).
• Place on waxed paper.
• Place the granulated sugar in a small shallow dish.
• Roll the small balls in sugar to coat.
• Place in a tightly covered container for a minimum of 24 hours to develop flavors.

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.

Steps:

• Melt butter/margarine in microwave in medium bowl Mix in sugar, nuts and bourbon.
• Refrigerate until firm.
• After chilled, shape into 1-inch balls.
• Refrigerate again until firm.
• Melt chocolate chips and half-and-half together in microwave (at medium-high (70%) for about 1-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until chips are melted) or in double boiler.
• When your mixture is homogenized, drizzle chocolate over candies.
• (You may want to let chocolate mixture cool slighly, but not to the point of solidifying.) Alternately, I believe the balls could be dipped in the sauce.
• Reheat chocolate as needed to keep it liquid.
• Chill on waxed paper.
