| Rum Balls |
| Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate cookie wafers (use oreo brand cookie crumbs, available where graham cracker crumbs are sold. 1/2 cup powder sugar 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts 1/4 cup corn syrup 3 tablespoons rum 1/2 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel |
| Directions: 1. Combine dry ingredients. 2. Stir in remaining ingredients. 3. Let mellow overnight at least and can be held in the refrigerator for several days. 4. Roll by 1/2 teaspoonful in powder sugar. Makes approximately 2 - 2 1/2 dozen |
| Variations: I've used Bailey's, Chambord or Frangelica instead of rum. You can also roll the balls in cocoa powder, sprinkles or colored sugars. |
