How To make Whiskey Balls
3 c Vanilla wafer crumbs
1/2 c Finely chopped pecans
1/2 c Unsweetened cocoa
2 c Confectioner's sugar
1/2 c Bourbon
3 tb Light corn syrup
Salt, if desired 1. Blend together the crumbs, nuts, cocoa, 1 cup confectioner's
sugar, Bourbon, corn syrup, and a dash of salt. Form into small balls the size of walnuts. 2. Roll each ball in the remaining 1 cup confectioner's sugar and
place on a cookie sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Note: It is traditional in the South to use Bourbon, but rye may also be used. This confection
or at least a version of it :
was an early Southern version of those chocolate truffles that became the rage for chocolate lovers during the 1980s in this country. The whiskey balls are made, of course, with cocoa rather than chocolate. ~From Craig Claiborne's "Southern Cooking" ~Lovingly hacked in for the FIDO Cooking Echo by Wesley Pitts, the Bourbon Cowboy.

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.
