Oh my goodness, these are phenomenal. BUT, the recipe as printed here is incorrect: you have to use **ALL** of the liqueurs, not just one of them. The 3 liqueurs combined make up a drink called a B-52, hence all of them are in this confection, 2 1/2 T. of each. Buy the small bottles at the liquor store, you know, stocking stuffer size. You can dip the balls in melted white chocolate, dark chocolate, etc. and roll some of them in crushed nuts or sprinkles. Use your imagination, have fun, and enjoy. Don't eat and drive! LOL

I have made this recipe for the last few years. I have changed from white to dark chocolate for the coating, it gives the candy a much richer flavor & brings out the orange of the Grand Marnier
