Holiday rum balls

Yield: 4 servings

Measure Ingredient
3½ cup Vanilla wafer crumbs
1½ cup Confectioners sugar, divided
1 cup Finely chopped peacans
¼ cup Unsweetened cocoa
⅓ cup Light or dark rum (I split this with Amaretto)
⅓ cup Karo Light Corn Syrup
⅓ cup Fine chopped Maraschino cherries

Mix crumbs with 1 cup of the confectioners sugar, pecans and cocoa and cherries. Stir in rum and corn syrup.

(I like to use a fork at this point to help in stirring the mixture) Shape into 1-inch balls. Roll balls on remaining sugar. Store in tightly covered container.

Refrigerate. Makes about 4½ dozen.

The ladies really like this one since it isn't overpowering.

You're welcome in advance.....Ed Hint: Make them about a week before needed. Bring back to room temp.

before serving.
