Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2-1/2 cups of crushed vanilla wafers
3/4 cup of powdered sugar
1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
3/4 cup of chopped pecans
3 tablespoons of corn syrup (light or dark)
1/2 cup of rum (or 1/4 cup of rum flavoring + 1/4 cup of water - see notes)
Additional powdered sugar for the coating

Steps:

  • In a food processor, crush the vanilla wafers until they are fine crumbs.
  • Combine the crushed vanilla wafers, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, chopped pecans, corn syrup (not corn starch), and rum.
  • Stir until mixed. I used my hands because it's much easier.
  • Pinch off pieces and roll them into balls the size of a large marble. Roll each on in powdered sugar.
  • Set them aside on a plate. Let them rest for about 10 minutes and then roll them in a second coating of powdered sugar.
  • It's best to wait a few hours before eating. It takes a little while for all of the flavors to bloom.
