Great recipie, hint: use double the bourbon and add a tablespoon of corn syrup. if the mix looks loose let set 15 or so min. also a cookie scoop(looks like a small ice cream scoop) works great to get them all uniform also speeds up the prosess. Have fun

This is a scaled down version of what is in my Southern Living cookbook. It's all the same ingredients, just less of each one. Like with what is in my book, I had to add a little more here and there to get the right consistency.

These are so good. If you have trouble rolling into balls, just refrigerate for a little bit. These have been a real hit in Iraq and brought some joy to my husband and the soldiers he works with.

I just made these today for a Christmas party this weekend. It was funny...when I was measuring the 1/4 shot of bourbon I thought, "what the heck, that doesn't seem like enough" and gave it a quick shot more. Do not try this at your home!! I used Jim Beam Black and they are strooooong! But whose complaining? I like them. But then again, I like the taste of Bourbon. These have turned out great and I will be making them often...using only the amount of bourbon called for, of course!

These are always a hit in my Christmas gift baskets. I make them several days in advance and leave out for 24 hours. Then I refrigerate for a few days. I find that the taste mellows the longer you wait to serve them.Thanks!

I've made this recipe with both bourbon and rum and both turned out great. You definately have to like whatever alcohol you use when making these because every bourbon ball recipe i've ever tried has a strong flavor.

This one just didn't work out well for us. It was too crumbly and I added more corn syrup and it improved. Was a bit grainy and very stong tasting (used Jim Beam bourbon) - however, I served them along with another recipe of the balls at a party last night and the group praised both and seemed to eat both equally so it may just be a matter of individual taste.

Fantastic recipe. I did need to add a little more rum for moisture but other than that, they came out perfectly. Thank you so much!

This recipe did not work for us. The texture was too grainy. I recommend pulsing for 2-3 minutes in the food processor. We used Jack Daniels whiskey, and we thought they were too strong. I will probably make rum balls next time.

I made these for my husbands birthday instead of cake. He enjoyed the taste but found that the cocoa they were rolled in was too bitter for him. I loved the taste, but wasn't too sure about the texture. I'll have to try it again to see if I can make them a little less grainy.

This is a wonderful recipe! Even though I tripled the recipe I came out with 52 pieces instead of 154. I also will place them in a cool dark place and sprinkle with more bourbon once a week until Christmas! Be careful! I made these one year and a friend of mine got drunk eating too many!

I followed the directions to a "T". Ingredients did not form and I had to add extra wafers. Taste was OK. I think I'll try a different recipe. Maybe I did something wrong.
