Chocolate and whiskey pair nicely in these bite-sized treats


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  under 30 minutes

ingredients

1 box (12 ounce size) vanilla wafers, crushed
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
2 cups powdered sugar, plus extra for coating
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup Jim Beam bourbon whiskey (see note)

directions

Mix dry ingredients. Add corn syrup and cut in. Add bourbon whiskey and stir until it is too firm to stir. Put on baker's gloves* and knead until dough is thoroughly mixed and firm.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls and roll in powdered sugar. Refrigerate.

NOTE: Any bourbon whiskey can be used but my favorite is Jim Beam.

* Hands can be used to knead dough but it is extremely sticky. Thin baker's gloves won't stick to dough.
