No-Bake Rum-Raisin Balls image

All the rum balls I saw on this site use cookie or wafers crumbs as a base. This one come from New Zealand and has raisins and coconut. They need to be made a day in advance, though. This recipe comes from "The Joy of Cookies" by Sharon Tyler Herbst. Cook time is the 24 hours that they need to sit overnight and the 1 hour that the rum and oats rest.
