Be the first to write a review

By , About.com Guide

These candies are similar to bourbon balls, but with ginger cookies, pecans, cocoa and rum.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup fine gingersnap crumbs
  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons light corn syrup
  • 1/3 cup rum
  • powdered sugar for coating

Preparation:

In a large bowl, combine gingersnap crumbs, pecans, 1 cup powdered sugar, the cocoa, corn syrup, and rum; stir to blend ingredients. Using about 1 teaspoon of the mixture, form small balls. Roll each ball in powdered sugar to coat generously. Store in tightly covered containers. Best if aged for about a week before serving. Before serving, roll once again in powdered sugar.
