Recipe: Brandy Balls

Posted by starwoodgal on November 10, 2008

Here’s a holiday “Adult” treat for the party animals out there. Brandy Balls! Luscious little bites of bourbon flavored wonderfulness that makes men weak in the knees. Even those good little Baptist boys who’d never dream of letting bourbon or brandy past their lips. :) They are so easy to make and the best part, NO OVEN REQUIRED! So, if you have a bourbon or brandy lover in the family, these are the perfect little homemade treat or gift that is sure to please. Get out your hidden bottle of bourbon or brandy and let’s make some Brandy Balls!

Brandy Balls

1 large package vanilla wafers (30 to 36 cookies) – grind them in a food processor or do the old bag and bang with a rolling pin. You need crumbs like graham cracker crumbs.
1 1/2 Tablespoon Cocoa
2 Tablespoon Karo Syrup (white)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
8 Tablespoons Bourbon (or Brandy if you like)
*powdered sugar

Mix all ingredients and form into balls about one inch in diameter. Roll in powdered sugar and place in tightly sealed canister.

Y’all (hiccup) Enjoy! ;)
