No Bake Rum Balls

Makes: about 36

Ingredients

2 tablespoons cocoa
2 cups confectioners sugar
2 1/2 cups finely crushed vanilla or graham wafers (most of a 12 oz box!)
1 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 cup dark (or dark spiced) rum or bourbon

Directions

Into a large bowl, sift the cocoa and 1 cup of confectioners sugar. Mix in remaining ingredients. Form the mixture into 1-inch balls with your hands. Sprinkle about 1 cup confectioners sugar on a plate and roll the balls in it to coat.
Store in a tin for at least 1 week before serving (I keep them in the fridge). They will mellow with age and will keep for up to 1 month.
