EASY 4 INGREDIENT RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Pulse Oreos in a food processor until you have 3 cups. Set aside.
• Pulse walnuts in a food processor until you have 1 ½ cups.
• Combine crushed Oreos, walnuts, cream in a medium bowl and mix well.
• Add rum starting with ¼ cup and adding more if needed to create a consistency that holds its shape when rolled. (If you add too much and they are too soft, add in more cookie crumbs to get desired consistency, note that the crumbs do soak up the liquids as they sit).
• Using a small scoop (or melon baller) scoop dough and roll into balls.
• Roll in sprinkles. Refrigerate 2 days before serving.

If the dough is too dry and won't form add a tiny bit more corn syrup, or if too moist & sticky and are hard to form, add a little more crushed vanilla wafers. Roll the dough into walnut sized balls and then roll in the coconut flakes until coated.
