November 12, 2019–I know it is my birthday but I wanted to give a small token of appreciation to my friends. What is better than bourbon and chocolate? Since it is almost a cookie you know I went to my no fail THE perfect cookie cookbook from ATK.

In a food processor, you process the pecans and vanilla wafers until they are finely ground. Put this mixture to a bowl then add the confectioners’ sugar, bourbon, corn syrup, and cocoa. Stir this mixture until it combines into one big mass.
Add the granulated sugar to a bowl. Using an ice cream scoop, form 1 tablespoon ball and roll then individually in the sugar.
Refrigerate the dough for about an hour before serving.


To accompany the Bourbon Balls I also made some Limoncello Balls.
