Ingredients
-
2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs (1 box, crushed, or I have also used 1/2 vanilla wafers and 1/2 chocolate chip cookies)
-
1 cup almond meal or 1 cup pecan meal (also called "flour", finely ground almonds or pecans)
-
1 cup confectioners' sugar
-
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
-
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
-
1/2 cup amaretto liqueur (I use the Disaronno brand)
Instructions
- Blend all the ingredients together and shape into 30 one-inch balls.
- If the mixture turns out too wet/dry, balance it out by adding more powdered (icing) sugar to dry it out or more liquor to moisten it up.
- Roll the balls in extra powdered sugar, cocoa powder or chocolate milk powder.
- Store in an airtight container for at least one week before sampling.
- I have also successfully stored them in the refrigerator and in the freezer.
