Love. Love. Love this recipe. So easy to make too. And with such sophisticated tasting results. The only caveat is trying to get people to try them. They often think they're all fudge. No. Or all booze. No. Once they try them (and for some it requires prompting), they realize it's all good. Yes.

I tried the "real" Bourbon (Rum) Balls (No Bake Cookies), at Christmas and although I thought it was very good, I wish I had this one. It really would have impressed the in-laws more! Or would it have made them out-laws? Honestly I think after trying this I wouldn't have cared! Thanks for the laugh Rita, this one was really a hoot!
