The countdown continues #8: Rum balls!




Tonight's Christmas recipe is so simple I am ashamed to post it. But I am! Go ahead and make some of these for all of your Friends and family. They will love them and you.


INGREDIENTS
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup rum or brandy (your choice)
1 (16 ounce) package vanilla wafers, crushed very fine
2 cups finely chopped walnuts

1 cup confectioners' sugar for rolling

DIRECTIONS Makes about 60 balls

*In the microwave or on the stove top in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt evaporated milk and chocolate chips, stirring frequently until smooth.
* Remove from heat and stir in the crushed vanilla wafers and brandy until well blended.
*Roll the dough into small balls and roll the balls in chopped walnuts, then in confectioners' sugar.
*Store covered in the refrigerator.

That's it. Could not be easier if you bought them. But go out and try to buy rum balls at your local grocer. Can't find them. Buy them made on-line. They cost a fortune!
Have one for yourself before you put them away. They are yummy!
