Rum Balls Recipe Paula Deen

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine wafer crumbs, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, walnuts, rum, corn syrup, butter and knead together. Roll into 1 inch balls and then into remaining confectioners' sugar. Arrange rum balls on a baking sheet, cover well with plastic wrap and let sit for 48 hours.

Steps:

• Mix together wafer crumbs, pecans, confectioners' sugar and cocoa. Combine rum, honey and water; stir into crumb mixture. Shape into 1-in. balls. Roll in additional confectioners' sugar or wafer crumbs. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Sift the cocoa with 1 cup sugar.
• Stir in the spiced rum mixed with the syrup.
• Add crushed vanilla wafers and nuts.
• Mix thoroughly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Bake the sweet potatoes with the skin ON (brush with oil, poke holes with a fork, and leave in the oven for about 45 minutes)
• Once they finish, peel and mash them. Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Stir in only 2/3 cup of brown sugar, all orange juice, all orange zest and all nutmeg.
• Place coconut in a food processor and leave on for about 30 seconds.
• In a small bowl, combine coconut, granulated sugar and cinnamon.
• Press mashed potatoes around the marshmallow, creating a 1" in diameter ball. The easiest way is to roll it around using both hands. You'll be a pro in no time!
• Roll the balls in the coconut mixture and place in a 9x13 casserole dish.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes.
• Now, while those are cooking, make your drizzling/dipping sauce: In a big pan melt the remaining brown sugar (1 cup) and butter.
• Add rum and heavy cream.
• Put all pecans (optional) in the food processor for about a minute. Then add them to your sauce.
• When the sweet potato balls are done, gingerly drizzle the rum sauce on them, or place the sauce in a condiment cup to the side.

Steps:

• Cream together sugar and butter in a bowl; add milk. Stir in almond, coconut, and nuts; mix well.
• Form candy into 1-inch balls. Place on waxed paper and refrigerate at least 3 hours.
• Melt chocolate in top of double boiler, stirring well. Remove from heat but allow chocolate to remain over hot water. (If chocolate becomes too thick, return to heat for a minute or so to thin). With a toothpick, dip each ball in chocolate and place on waxed paper until set.

Steps:

• Grind cookies in a food processor into fine crumbs; transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the cocoa and confectioners' sugar.
• In a food processor or blender crush/crumble the vanilla wafers.
• Add the crushed vanilla wafers to the sugar mixture and combine.
• Add the remaining ingredients.
• Form the mixture into 1 inch (2. 5 cm) balls with your hands.
• The balls should hold together easily and retain their shape.
• If the mixture is too dry to hold together or too wet to form balls, you can easily adjust the consistency by adding rum/sugar accordingly.
• Sprinkle the extra cocoa or ground chocolate on a flat surface and roll the balls in to coat.
• Have 'em on your cookie tray this year and watch 'em vanish before you know it!

Steps:

• Place vanilla cookies in a food processor and process into fine crumbs.
