2½ cups vanilla wafers, finely crushed
1 cup confectioner’s sugar, sifted
2 tbsp. cocoa powder
½ cup finely chopped walnuts
¼ cup Lamb’s Navy (151-proof) rum
¼ cup light corn syrup
Combine wafer crumbs, confectioner’s sugar, cocoa powder, and nuts. Stir in liquor and corn syrup. Form the mixture into 1-inch balls, adding a little water (I prefer to add more rum) if necessary to permit the mixture to be formed. Roll balls in granulated sugar. Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

Open container - eat - eat more - have a couple more - then passout until after New Years..... ;)

Sorry, Dean and Robin. I snaffled the recipe, too.
I would probably pass out just from opening the container!

I am SO making this!
So what happens if I double up (or triple) the measure of Lamb's Navy 151?

I think you would need a spoon to eat it like cereal.

Yup. Even better than serving Bailey's Irish Cream over the Cocoa Puffs.
