Walnut Chocolate Rum Balls

Walnut Chocolate Rum Balls

Ingredients:

• 1 c Walnuts, ground or finely chopped
• 2 c Grated "German's sweet" or bittersweet chocolate
• 1 1/2 c Sifted confectioner's sugar
• 4 tb Rum
• Cocoa powder

Instructions:

Combine nuts, sugar, and chocolate. Moisten with rum to form a stiff
dough. Form into small balls and roll in cocoa to coat. This recipe is not
only simple, it's flexible. It can be made with other kinds of liquor
(amaretto, sherry, and Southern Comfort work well), nuts (almonds or
pecans, for instance) and coatings (ground nuts, finely grated coconut,
etc.) and always comes out tasting great. Adding small chunks of nut
for texture is also effective.
