Let’s Get Started!
Yield: 30 Bourbon Balls
Bourbon Balls Recipe
Ingredients:
Dough
2 cups pecans
2 cups crushed vanilla wafers (approximately 8 ounces)
¼ cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa
2 cups confectioners’ sugar plus more for rolling
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
½ cup bourbon, such as Jack Daniel’s
Finishing
¼ cup cocoa powder
¾ cup confectioners’ sugar, divided
Rum ball variation
2½ cups vanilla wafer crumbs
1 cup finely ground nuts or shredded coconut
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
½ cup Meyers rum (light or dark) or your favorite brandy
Extra cocoa or finely ground instant coffee, for rolling
Directions:
First, Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roast the pecans on a parchment-lined baking sheet pan. Bake for 3-5 minutes so they are nice and toasted.
Then, in a food process, process 44 vanilla wafers into crumbs. Add pecans to crushed wafers process until you get a fine powder. Transfer to a medium bowl.
I use this Bourbon from a distillery in Evanston Illinois. The underlying caramel notes are perfect for this bourbon balls recipe. And don’t skimp on the bourbon!
I also use my private label vanilla – it’s aged in a cognac barrel, with citrus, candies fruit notes and spices. It smells so good in here, The bourbon, chocolate and roasted pecans make the kitchen very aromatic.
Finish the balls: take 1 tablespoon full and roll them into a ball. Perfectly moistened by the bourbon.
Sift remaining ¼ cup cocoa with ¼ cup of remaining confectioners’ sugar in a large mixing bowl. Watch the video to see the mixture consistency.
Coat the bourbon balls in the cocoa-sugar mixture to coat.
