1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup water
1 tsp rum extract, or almond extract
2 ½ cups vanilla wafers, finely crushed
1 cup pecans, crushed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Line cookie sheets or trays with waxed paper.
Melt chocolate chips in the microwave for 25 seconds. Stir and microwave in 10-second intervals as needed, stirring each time until melted.
Mix the water with the rum or almond extract.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix melted chocolate, confectioners’ sugar, corn syrup and the flavored water with a wooden spoon.
Stir in wafer crumbs and pecans until blended. Shape by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls. If the mixture is too crumbly, add a tiny amount of water.
Roll in granulated sugar and place on cookie sheets to set. Store in an airtight container until ready to eat.
