Instructions

  1. Pulse Oreos in a food processor until you have 3 cups. Set aside.
  2. Pulse walnuts in a food processor until you have 1 ½ cups.
  3. Combine crushed Oreos, walnuts, cream in a medium bowl and mix well.
  4. 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).
  5. Using a small scoop (or melon baller) scoop dough and roll into balls.
  6. Roll in sprinkles. Refrigerate 2 days before serving.

Notes

  •  
  •  
  • Use dark rum for rum balls, it adds the best flavor.
  • Make sure you crush the ingredients before measuring for accuracy
  • Chop or process the nuts so they are fairly fine but still have a few little chunks.  You don't want them too fine (or to turn into a peanut butter consistency).
  • To make these alcohol-free, substitute the rum for 1 teaspoon extract (add extra cream if needed).
  • Once all of the ingredients are combined, ensure they form a ball that holds its shape and isn't too soft. If you find your mixture to be very soft, crush a few more cookies (any kind o hard cookie if you run out of Oreos) and stir them in.
  • To decorate, place just a small amount of sprinkles in a bowl and roll the rum ball pressing to stick. The sprinkles can get oily and won't stick so work in small batches.
