Ingredients
- 150 grams Sultanas
- 100 grams Mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts)
- 30 grams Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 200 grams Crushed plain biscuits (e.g., digestive or graham crackers)
- 75 grams Desiccated coconut
- 60 milliliters Rum
- 80 grams Butter (softened)
- 50 grams Powdered sugar (for rolling)
Directions
Step 1
1. Place the sultanas in a small bowl and pour the rum over them. Let them soak for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavor.
Step 2
2. Meanwhile, finely chop the mixed nuts or pulse them in a food processor until coarsely ground.
Step 3
3. Crush the plain biscuits until they reach a fine crumb consistency. You can use a food processor or place them in a sealed bag and crush with a rolling pin.
Step 4
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit crumbs, ground nuts, cocoa powder, and desiccated coconut. Mix well to evenly distribute.
Step 5
5. Add the soaked sultanas (including any remaining rum), softened butter, and mix until the mixture comes together into a crumbly yet moldable consistency. If needed, add 1–2 teaspoons of water for better binding.
Step 6
6. Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture (approximately 1 tablespoon) and roll them into balls.
Step 7
7. Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until evenly coated.
Step 8
8. Transfer the finished rum balls to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
