Billie Sues Secret No Bake Rum Balls Recipes

DELICIOUS RUM BALLS (NO-BAKE!)

Steps:

• 1. In a food processor or electric chopper, blend up Vanilla Wafers (or Graham Crackers) until it reaches a mealy consistency. Add all ingredients together in a bowl, except powdered sugar. Roll them into pecan or walnut-sized balls. If they are too dry, add a tiny bit more corn syrup, or if too moist and are hard to form, add a little more processed vanilla wafers. When rolled to the size you want, roll in powdered sugar.
• 2. This makes about 2 dozen balls.(Don't make them too big!) Cover and refrigerate until serving. These can also be made without the liquor so kids can enjoy them. May have to add more prepared wafers to make up for the omitted liquid.
• 3. If you are taking these to a party, one batch may not be enough! Note: For a more interesting taste, use coffee liquer, or a peppermint, or butterscotch schnapps for the flavor instead of rum or bourbon, whiskey, etc. Warning!! Don't eat too many of these and drive! During the Holidays and always, eat and drink responsibly anything containing alcohol! Happy Holidays and Bon Apetit' Y'all!

• In a medium sized bowl, mix together the vanilla wafers, cocoa and sugar. Stir in the chopped walnuts, corn syrup and rum. Mix until well blended.

BILLIE SUE'S SECRET (NO BAKE) RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Set up a work station with a large Ziplock bag and rolling pin (or a food processor); a large bowl for mixing; and a shallow bowl with ¾ cup of granulated or powdered sugar, cocoa powder or chopped nuts, for rolling. Place the cookies in Ziplock bag, seal and crush with the rolling pin. Alternatively, crush in the food processor until fine crumbs form. It's ok if there are some slightly larger pieces.
• Add the crushed cookies, cocoa powder, condensed milk, rum and vanilla to the large bowl. Mix the ingredients well using a wooden spoon, then your hands if it gets too thick. (If mixture is too thick, mix in 1-2 tablespoons milk; if too wet, add a tablespoon or two of cocoa).
• Scoop out a tablespoonful of mixture and roll into a 1 - 1 ½ inch ball, then roll in sugar, powdered cocoa or chopped/toasted nuts, until completely covered. Place on a baking sheet or tray and repeat until all the mixture has been rolled into balls.
• Allow to sit out overnight for rum balls to "get happy," then, store covered in refrigerator.
• Store in fridge in closed container until ready to serve.
