Nancy gave this recipe to mom who then took over and made them for years. A Christmas or New Year's Party, any winter holiday party wouldn't be complete without them. Also make for interesting gifts in those holiday gift baskets. So easy to make, too. A 12 oz. pkg. of wavers should equal the needed three cups. Use bourbon if preferred. There is no baking involved.

24 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 cups finely crushed vanilla, wavers
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup rum or bourbon
1/2 cup granulated sugar

Directions

1
In a large bowl, thoroughly mix all ingredients except 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
2
Shape mixture into 1 inch balls; roll balls in sugar.
3
Store in tightly covered container for at least three days before serving. This allows flavors to mellow.
4
Keeps up to two weeks in the container.
