Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed vanilla wafers, powdered sugar, chopped nuts, and cocoa powder. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are thoroughly combined.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the dark rum, corn syrup, and vanilla extract. Pour this wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl.
-
Using a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon, stir the mixture until well combined. It should come together to form a firm and slightly sticky dough.
-
Once the dough is mixed, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour. Chilling the dough will make it easier to shape into balls later on.
-
After the dough has chilled, remove it from the refrigerator. Take small portions of the dough and roll them between your palms to form small balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
-
Place some additional powdered sugar in a small bowl. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until it is evenly coated. This will give the Vanille Rum Kugeln a beautiful snowy finish.
-
Once all the balls are coated, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 1 hour to set.
-
Your delicious Vanille Rum Kugeln are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them on a festive platter or package them up in pretty boxes to give as gifts to family and friends.
