CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY RUM BALLS
These are now the most asked for dessert EVER! You won't believe how great these are! I was able to recreate a rum ball I had only 1 time many years ago. My nephews buy them at a bakery in Chicago when they can get up there. So I aim to be their favorite aunt by making these for family gatherings from now on. They must be served very cold. Use only good quality rum. I use Tortuga rum 2 shots vanilla and 2 shots white.

Steps:
- Bake cake according to directions using the eggs, oil and water listed above in ingredients. EXCEPT: Add the rum extract and cherry juice as well. And then mix in the cherries cut into 1/4's and 1/8's. I bake it usually 28 minutes. I check it at 20 minutes but it always takes a little longer.
- Finely crumble 1/2 of the cake in a large mixing bowl, drizzle with 2 of the shots of rum. Toss to thoroughly coat cake crumbs.
- Crumble other 1/2 of cake into the bowl. Drizzle with remaining 2 shots of rum, again toss thoroughly.
- Form balls with cake about 2" across, press moderately firm into nice round balls. Place on a plate and refrigerate till cold.
- Spray cookie sheet or cake pan generously with spray Pam.
- In a double boiler melt the chocolate chips and lard. Roll each ball in chocolate and remove with small tongs and lightly shake off excess chocolate. Don't worry about tong marks. After you put the ball in the pan use the back of a small spoon and smooth over bare spots. Sprinkle generously with chocolate sprinkles. Refrigerate balls immediately for a couple of hours. ENJOY!

CHOCOLATE RUM BALLS
This has been an old-time family favorite recipe for many years. I have made these with not only regular rum but coconut flavored rum, bourbon, brandy, amaretto, kahlua...etc. I generally use walnuts but pecans, macadamia or almonds are also good. These are best if they sit a few days in a tightly covered container before eating. They also freeze well. Cooling time is not included in the PREP/COOKING time. Please allow 30 minutes to cool before rolling cookies into balls. FOR ADULTS ONLY, so please make sure you keep these away from the little ones.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY BALLS
These cadies can be made as gifts anytime of the year. However, I think they would make a nice addition to your Christmas gift list and cookie tray. Paraffin can usually be found in the canning section of the store. Actually, hardware stores are the best place to find it.
