Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups of myers coconut rum
  • 3/4 cup caro corn syrup, at room temperature
  • 1 cup trader joes sesame honey-roasted almond

Directions:

  1. In a large non metal mixing bowl with a wooden spoon:
  2. Mix the smashed nilla wafers with the turbinado sugar and the rum.
  3. Incorporate the caro light corn syrup.
  4. Incorporate the melted semisweet chocolate chips.
  5. Let the mixture cool to a workable consistency
  6. Line a jelly roll tray with parchment, put your surgical gloves on to start rolling the rum balls about 1 tsp in size - or slightly smaller than a doughnut hole.
  7. As you roll the rum balls up (slightly smaller than a doughnut hole)~~
  8. Roll them in a tray of coconut flakes and chopped almonds (I love the trader joe’s sesame honey almonds), or you can embed a whole almond on the rum ball and roll in powdered sugar and coconut flakes. Either way is quite tasty.
  9. Place rum balls on the parchment and let set up for a little while - you can refrigerate them.
