RUM BALLS

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.

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.

SPICED RUM PECAN COOKIE BALLS

This recipe specifically is one that people usually eat around Christmas time, but I was having some holiday's nostalgia. This recipe is a cookie recipe that requires no eggs what-so-ever! Therefore your baking powder is important here. I found out earlier this year that you have to be cautious of baking powder, specifically it's...

SPICED RUM BALLS

Something of a holiday favorite around our friends and family. In fact, we get pretty competitive about whose balls are the best... The recipe is infinitely customizable. You can substitute vanilla wafers or graham crackers for the ginger snaps, walnuts for the pecans, and/or other liqueurs for the rum, and add spices or cocoa powder to the powdered sugar for extra fun. This is my favorite variant, though. My favorite rum to use in these is Gosling's Black Seal, though Pyrat is not bad. These are easy to make, but really sticky. The recipe makes 24-36, depending on how big your balls are.

CHRISTMAS RUM BALLS(OR BOURBON BALLS)

These balls are so quick and easy to make. They make a nice addition to the baked goodies that you give as gifts. Make these about a week before you want to serve them as they mellow and the sharp strong alcohol taste blends in more with the other ingredients. Store in a tin with a tight lid. This year I couldn't find the Vanilla wafers so I used chocolate and I like them even more. To form the balls I use two teaspoons as the dough is quite moist. I store them in the freezer - they don't go hard and they are so good ice cold
