These fun and festive no bake chocolate Rum Balls are made easy with six ingredients in your food processor. They can be decorated to suit any occasion. I love to fix these for my friends and family for the holidays. Nothing says I love you and I appreciate you like a big plate of these tasty goodies. They look gorgeous on my Christmas cookie trays every year.

Ingredients For rum balls

  • 1 box
    vanilla wafers
  • 1 1/2 c
    roasted almonds
  • 3/4 c
    powdered sugar
  • 1/3 c
    unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/2 c
    light rum
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp
    corn syrup

How To Make rum balls

  • 1
    Using a food processor crush cookies and nuts until finely ground. Move contents to a medium bowl. Stir in powdered sugar and cocoa until well mixed.
  • 2
    Add the rum and the corn syrup a little at a time alternating between the two. You want just enough for everything to pull into a dough that you can roll into balls.
  • 3
    Roll into one inch balls and then roll the mixture through sprinkles, powdered sugar, or cocoa. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
