Fudge Rum Balls Recipes

CHOCOLATE RUM BALLS I

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the crushed vanilla wafers, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, cocoa, and nuts. Blend in corn syrup and rum.
• Shape into 1 inch balls, and roll in additional confectioners' sugar. Store in an airtight container for several days to develop the flavor. Roll again in confectioners' sugar before serving.

RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside. Melt butter and chocolate in a small heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
• Whisk together eggs, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in chocolate mixture, then fold in flour. Pour batter into prepared baking sheet. Spread evenly with a rubber spatula. Bake until top is shiny and a cake tester inserted into center comes out with some crumbs attached, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Break up brownie into small pieces; transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. With machine on low speed, pour in rum, and mix until crumbs start to come together to form a ball.
• Shape into 1-inch balls, and roll in sanding sugar to coat. Transfer to a baking sheet; refrigerate, uncovered, until cold, about 2 hours. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Place vanilla cookies in a food processor and process into fine crumbs.
• Heat chocolate chips and corn syrup together in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring often, until chocolate is melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rum and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in cookie crumbs; dough will be sticky.
• Place saucepan in the refrigerator until dough is firm and easy to roll, about 15 minutes. Cover 2 plates with waxed paper; dust with confectioners' sugar.
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on the prepared plates. Dust rum balls with confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Remove rum balls from refrigerator and transfer to a resealable bag, including the extra confectioners' sugar. Seal the bag and shake to coat the rum balls completely with confectioners' sugar.

FUDGY BOURBON BALLS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the cookie crumbs and pecans until the nuts are finely ground. (The crumbs keep the nuts from turning into nut butter.)
• In a separate bowl, stir together the bourbon, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and honey. Add the mixture to food processor and pulse until just combined. Let the dough rest overnight, uncovered and at room temperature. This allows the mixture to dry out a little.
• Roll the dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter, then toss the balls in confectioners' sugar. Store them in an airtight container if you want them moist, or uncovered if you like them to develop a crunchy sugar crust on the outside. Sprinkle with more confectioners' sugar just before serving.

RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Set up a work station with a large ziplock bag and rolling pin (or a food processor); a large bowl for mixing; and a shallow bowl with 3/4 cup of coconut for rolling in.
• Place the cookies in ziplock bag, seal and crush with the rolling pin. Alternatively, crush in the food processor until fine crumbs form. It's ok if there are some slightly larger pieces.
• Add the crushed cookies, coconut, cocoa powder, condensed milk, rum and vanilla to the large bowl. Mix the ingredients well using a wooden spoon, then your hands once it gets too thick. (If mixture is too thick, mix in 1-2 tablespoons milk).
• Scoop out a tablespoonful of mixture and roll into a 1 - 1 1/2 inch ball, then roll in coconut until completely covered. Place on a baking sheet or tray and repeat until all the mixture has been rolled into balls.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve.

MAGIC RUM BALLS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped wafers, sweetened condensed milk, walnuts, and rum; mix well. Chill 4 hours or overnight.
• Dip palms of hands in powdered sugar; shape by teaspoons into 1 inch balls. Roll in powdered sugar. (If mixture becomes too soft, rechill). Cover and store in refrigerator. Reroll in powdered sugar before servbing, if desired.

EASY RUM BALLS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the cookie crumbs and pecans until the nuts are finely ground.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the bourbon or rum, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, the cocoa powder, and honey. Add the mixture to the food processor and pulse until just combined.
• Let the dough rest, uncovered, at room temperature for 4 hours or, lightly covered, overnight. This will dry it out a little.
• Use your fingers to roll the dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Roll the balls in confectioners' sugar. Store the balls airtight if you like them moist, or uncovered if you like them to develop a crunchy sugar crust on the outside. Sprinkle with (or roll the balls in) additional confectioners' sugar just before serving.

FUDGE RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Grease and flour 13x9x2 inch pan.
• Prepare, bake and cool cake following package directions.
• Crumble cake into large bowl. Stir with fork until crumbs are fine and uniform in size.
• Add 1 cup nuts, rum, confectioners sugar and cocoa. Stir until well blended.
• Shape heaping tablespoonfuls mixture into balls. Garnish by rolling balls in finely chopped nuts. Press firmly to adhere nuts to balls.
• Tip: you can also roll them in coconut.

NO-BAKE RUM BALLS

Steps:

• In a food processor, crush the vanilla wafers until they are fine crumbs.
• Combine the crushed vanilla wafers, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, chopped pecans, corn syrup (not corn starch), and rum.
• Stir until mixed. I used my hands because it's much easier.
• Pinch off pieces and roll them into balls the size of a large marble. Roll each on in powdered sugar.
• Set them aside on a plate. Let them rest for about 10 minutes and then roll them in a second coating of powdered sugar.
• It's best to wait a few hours before eating. It takes a little while for all of the flavors to bloom.

BUTTERED RUM FUDGE

Steps:

• Line an 8" by 8" pan with parchment paper and grease with nonstick cooking spray. In a large microwave safe bowl, combine white chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave on medium power for 1 minute intervals, stirring after each minute.
• When mixture is smooth and no lumps remain, stir in pecans, rum, vanilla and salt. Pour into prepared baking dish, sprinkle with more pecans and dust with cinnamon. Refrigerate for 3 hours, or until fudge is set.

CLASSIC RUM BALLS RECIPE

• Place toasted pecans in a food processor and process until fine. Be careful not to process so much they turn into pecan butter. Remove the pecans from the food processor.
• Add the vanilla wafers to the food processor and process until finely ground.
• Add the pecans back into the food processor along with the powdered sugar, cocoa, corn syrup, vanilla and rum. Process until mixture is thick and combined.
• Scoop 1 tablespoon size balls and roll between your hands. Roll in additional cocoa powder and/or powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

EASY 4 INGREDIENT RUM BALLS

Steps:

• Pulse Oreos in a food processor until you have 3 cups. Set aside.
• Pulse walnuts in a food processor until you have 1 ½ cups.
• Combine crushed Oreos, walnuts, cream in a medium bowl and mix well.
• Add rum starting with ¼ cup and adding more if needed to create a consistency that holds its shape when rolled. (If you add too much and they are too soft, add in more cookie crumbs to get desired consistency, note that the crumbs do soak up the liquids as they sit).
• Using a small scoop (or melon baller) scoop dough and roll into balls.
• Roll in sprinkles. Refrigerate 2 days before serving.
