Rum balls are super popular, and for good reason. Something about their shape, texture, and flavor is just so delectable! Though rum is in the name, and it definitely upgrades this simple treat, it is entirely optional, so you can opt to remove it if you’re planning on serving these to children and don’t want them to get tipsy.

Prep Time 1 hour

Serves: 20

Difficulty Level: Low

Ingredients:

Plain cookies - 9 oz. (or sweet crackers)

Sweetened condensed milk - a 14 oz. can

Rum - 3 tbsp. (optional)

Coconut flakes - 1 cup, divided

Cocoa powder - 1/2 cup

Method of Preparation:

Using a food processor or a plastic bag and a rolling pin, crush the cookies into crumbs. The end result doesn’t have to be a fine powder, and having larger chunks is okay.
Place the crushed cookies, half of the coconut flakes, condensed milk, cocoa powder, and rum in a bowl and mix using a wooden spoon and your hands until a thick mixture forms.
Scoop out tablespoon portions, roll into a ball and roll in coconut. Lay out on a baking sheet and refrigerate before serving.
