Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Crushed graham crackers
- 120 grams Powdered sugar
- 40 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 80 milliliters Dark rum
- 200 grams Sweetened condensed milk
- 5 milliliters Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Desiccated coconut or chocolate sprinkles (for coating)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the dark rum, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes moist and forms a cohesive dough.
If the mixture feels too dry and crumbly, add a splash more rum or a teaspoon of milk, one at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. It should be firm yet pliable for easy rolling.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball. Repeat this process with the rest of the mixture.
Spread the desiccated coconut or chocolate sprinkles on a plate or shallow bowl. Roll each rum ball in the coating of your choice, ensuring it is evenly covered.
Place the finished rum balls on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the rum balls for at least 1 hour to allow them to firm up and the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
