INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix all dry ingredients and set aside.
Mix corn syrup or honey with rum or bourbon to thin the syrup. Blend wet
mixture into dry ingredients with fork. Mix well. Allow to sit for 1-2
hours.
At this point, if you let it sit a couple of hours, you can come back and
add another about 1/2 cup of rum or bourbon and let sit again. This process
may be repeated a few times to your taste. The last time, the mix should
sit a couple of hours so it's not really moist. There's a good midpoint
between too moist and too dry where rolling into balls won't be difficult
(too wet) or cause crumbling (too dry).
Roll into balls, then roll in powered sugar to make a sugar coating. When
rolling in powered sugar, the moister they are, the more sugar will be
absorbed over time. They may need another roll in the sugar right before
serving.
  NOTES:
*  Intoxicating chocolate snack with rum or bourbon -- I got this from my
mom who uses more alcohol than the original recipe called for but less than
I like to use. It makes a great party snack. Yield: Makes about 30 small
balls.
: Difficulty:  easy to moderate.
: Time:  1/2 to 1 hour preparation; 3 or more hours waiting.
: Precision:  approximate measurement OK.
