Easy Rum Balls

"LOL! Since this is a no bake recipe the rum balls are quite potent, and one surely needs a designated driver to eat them. Its been so long since I made them that I can't remember how many the recipe makes. Of course that may be a result of family and friends eating them as fast as they are made. When posting the recipe it made me post a number for the yield, hence the 24."

  1. I've made these many times, but I used 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips (melted) instead of the cocoa powder. Sometimes I coat these in grated coconut instead of powdered sugar...I like it that way the best because it tastes like a gourmet Mounds candy bar! This is always a big hit for Christmas! I added my photo!
     
  2. I subbed graham crumbs for the vanilla wafers crumbs which made these a bit dry. My fault and not the recipes. Nice strong rum flavour but I did find them a bit lacking in chocolate BUT that could be that the crumbs I used overpowered that. Quick and easy to make. Will make again but this time with the right vanilla crumbs LOL Made for Photo Tag
