Grand Marnier Chocolate Cookie Balls (No Bake) image

Had an extra box of vanilla wafers and wanted to make something other than rum balls for the holidays. This is a wonderful variation on traditional rum or bourbon balls.

Time 40m

Yield 44 cookies, 22 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 1/4 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon orange extract
1/2 cup Grand Marnier or 1/2 cup other orange liqueur
1/3 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)

Steps:

  • In very large bowl, combine wafer crumbs, cocoa, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly.
  • Add corn syrup, orange extract, and Grand Marnier and stir until large ball forms. If too crumbly add small amounts of corn syrup or liqueur until mixture sticks together well.
  • Roll in your hands to form into 1 inch balls (I used a small cookie scoop and then rolled into balls).
  • Roll balls in granulated sugar and place on wax-paper lined tray.
  • Store in airtight container for a few days to build flavor. Place wax paper between layers of cookie balls to prevent sticking together.
  • If desired, can roll in powdered sugar or cocoa instead of granulated sugar. If sugar disappears while balls are being stored, roll again in sugar before serving.

Time 30m

3/4 c whipping cream
1/4 c butter
3 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp grand marnier
7 squares semisweet chocolate, melted

Tips:

  • For a smoother ganache, finely chop the chocolate before melting it.
  • If the ganache is too thick, add a little bit of milk or cream and stir until smooth.
  • To make the balls easier to roll, chill the ganache for at least 30 minutes before scooping.
  • If the ganache is too sticky to roll, dust your hands with cocoa powder or powdered sugar.
  • To get a cleaner coating, double-dip the balls in the chocolate.
  • Decorate the balls with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or grated chocolate while the chocolate is still wet.
  • Store the balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
