I have made these using dark rum, Grand Marnier and Bailey's Irish Cream, you can use any three with success.. I usually make these treats around the holiday season, but of coarse you can make them at any time. I make one batch using semisweet chocolate and one with white chocolate, these really should chill overnight before serving them, you'll be lucky if they make until the next day LOL! Yield is only estimated depending on the size of the balls --- you will LOVE these! :)

Categories     Candy

Time 30m

Yield 36 balls (approximately)

Number Of Ingredients 7

17 Oreo cookies (do not use double-stuffed)
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
3 tablespoons Kahlua
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
chocolate, for dipping (optional)

Steps:

  • Chop or crush cookies quite fine.
  • Measure out 1 1/2 cups of crushed cookies and mix with remaining ingredients except dipping chocolate.
  • Form into small balls, about one inch in diameter.
  • Roll balls in remaining cookie crumbs (for best results, have the crumbs crushed very fine).
  • OR, refrigerate balls for 1 hour and then dip in melted chocolate; return to refrigerator to set chocolate.
  • Store in airtight container in refrigerator.
  • NOTE: If you want to make a non-alcoholic version, just substitute Kahlua flavored syrup, which can be found in the coffee section of most supermarkets.
  • Change the liqueur/syrup flavor to make Amaretto Balls, Irish Cream Balls, or whatever suits you.

Tips:

  • To make the process easier, start by creating even-sized balls of crushed cookies. This will help you create uniform truffles.
  • If the mixture is too dry, add a little more Kahlua or rum. If it's too wet, add more cookie crumbs.
  • Don't over-mix the ganache. Over-mixing can cause the chocolate to seize and become grainy.
  • Use a variety of sprinkles, nuts, and candies to decorate your chocolate balls. This will make them more festive and appealing.
  • Store the chocolate balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

These no-bake chocolate Kahlua Christmas balls are a delicious and easy-to-make holiday treat. They're perfect for parties, cookie exchanges, or as a gift. With their rich chocolate flavor, Kahlua kick, and festive decorations, these truffles are sure to be a hit!
