Boozy Bon Bons - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) box vanilla wafer cookies
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 cup whiskey
1/2 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Preparation

Put cookies into a large ziplock bag and crush with a rolling pin or put into a food processor until you have very fine crumbs.
Mix the 1 cup powdered sugar, cocoa powder and walnuts thoroughly. Add to the cookie crumbs in a large bowl and mix together.
Add the corn syrup and whiskey and stir to combine. If mixture seems dry, add more whiskey, about a tablespoon at a time, up to 1/4 cup more. Do not add any more than this or the mixture will be too wet.
Let mixture stand for 20 minutes.
Roll into 1\" balls, then roll in powdered sugar and place on waxed paper. Let dry 30 minutes.
Store in airtight container 2-3 weeks to ripen before eating.
