Grand Marnier Chocolate Cookie Balls (No Bake) image

Had an extra box of vanilla wafers and wanted to make something other than rum balls for the holidays. This is a wonderful variation on traditional rum or bourbon balls.

Time 40m

Yield 44 cookies, 22 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 1/4 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon orange extract
1/2 cup Grand Marnier or 1/2 cup other orange liqueur
1/3 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)

Steps:

  • In very large bowl, combine wafer crumbs, cocoa, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly.
  • Add corn syrup, orange extract, and Grand Marnier and stir until large ball forms. If too crumbly add small amounts of corn syrup or liqueur until mixture sticks together well.
  • Roll in your hands to form into 1 inch balls (I used a small cookie scoop and then rolled into balls).
  • Roll balls in granulated sugar and place on wax-paper lined tray.
  • Store in airtight container for a few days to build flavor. Place wax paper between layers of cookie balls to prevent sticking together.
  • If desired, can roll in powdered sugar or cocoa instead of granulated sugar. If sugar disappears while balls are being stored, roll again in sugar before serving.
