1 c  Walnuts, ground or
- finely chopped
2 c  Grated "Germans sweet" or
- bittersweet chocolate
1 1/2 c  Sifted confectioners sugar
4 tb Rum
Cocoa powder

Combine nuts, sugar, and chocolate. Moisten with rum to form a stiff dough.
Form into small balls and roll in cocoa to coat. This recipe is not only
simple, its flexible. It can be made with other kinds of liquor (amaretto,
sherry, and Southern Comfort work well), nuts (almonds or pecans, for
instance) and coatings (ground nuts, finely grated coconut, etc.) and
always comes out tasting great. Adding small chunks of nut for texture is
also effective.
