Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups cookie crumbs 150 grams, such as vanilla wafer cookies
- ¼ cup powdered sugar 30 grams, aka icing sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¾ cup nuts 112 grams, finely chopped; almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts or cashews
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ¼ cup rum 60 grams, white, dark or spiced
Instructions
- In a large bowl add the ground cookie crumbs, sift in the icing sugar and cocoa, sifting helps prevent lumps, add the finely chopped nuts, whisk the ingredients all together.
- Add the honey and rum and mix together with a fork. If you find the mixture too wet then refrigerate for about an hour. If the mixture is too dry then add more Rum (½ tablespoon at a time). Try rolling a ball first before adding more Rum, because it may look dry but they may come together without anything extra added.
- Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls, roll them in cocoa, icing sugar or even dip in melted chocolate (or coating of your choice). Place them on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Any simple cookie of choice can be used in this recipe.
- They should be stored in an airtight container be sure to separate the layers with parchment paper. Store them in the refrigerator and they will last up to 2 weeks.
- Rum Balls should be frozen between layers of parchment paper in a freezer safe container. They will keep for up to 2 months if stored properly. They should be thawed in the fridge before serving. It is probably best to freeze them before coating then once thawed coat with desired coating.
