# Directions:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine crushed vanilla wafers, shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and powdered sugar. Mix well until everything is evenly distributed.
02 -
Add the sweetened condensed milk, rum, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until a thick dough forms. If the mixture feels dry, add one extra tablespoon of condensed milk.
03 -
Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes. This allows the biscuits to soften and absorb moisture, creating a smooth and cohesive dough.
04 -
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, take portions of the dough and roll into bite-sized balls. Aim for 1-inch diameter balls for the perfect texture.
05 -
Roll each ball in shredded coconut until fully coated. For a snowy look, roll some balls in powdered sugar.
06 -
Place the rum balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. They firm up beautifully and taste even better once chilled.
