Step 2
Next, combine the crushed vanilla wafers, chopped nuts, 3/4 cup of confectioners' sugar, and cocoa powder.
Step 3
Give it a good mix until everything is evenly blended, allowing the flavors to mingle beautifully.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to add the light rum and light corn syrup to your dry mixture.
Step 5
Stir gently but thoroughly until the ingredients come together to form a delightful dough that’s ready for shaping.
Step 6
With your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls, feeling the texture as you go.

Once shaped, roll each ball in a bit of additional confectioners' sugar to give them a sweet, snowy coating.
Step 8
Place your rum balls in an airtight container, and let them rest for 2 to 3 days.

This waiting period is essential as it allows the flavors to deepen and develop, making each bite a little piece of heaven.

When you’re ready to serve, feel free to roll them in confectioners' sugar once more for that extra touch of sweetness.
