Fudgy Bourbon Balls

• 2 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (best made with Nabisco Famous wafers -- 1 package -- pulverized in a food processor)
• 1 1/4 cups pecans
• 1/2 cup good bourbon or rum
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus additional for rolling
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons honey

1. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the cookie crumbs and pecans until the nuts are finely ground.
2. In a separate bowl, stir together the bourbon or rum, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, the cocoa powder, and honey. Add the mixture to the food processor and pulse until just combined. Let the dough rest, uncovered, at room temperature for 4 hours or, lightly covered, overnight. This will dry it out a little.
3. Use your fingers to roll the dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Roll the balls in confectioners' sugar. Store the balls airtight if you like them moist, or uncovered if you like them to develop a crunchy sugar crust on the outside. Sprinkle with (or roll the balls in) additional confectioners' sugar just before serving.
