Boozy Bon Bons
- 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)
- 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.
