Making Chocolate Rum Balls is fun and easy. Just follow these simple steps to create these amazing treats:

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Clear a clean surface or a large mixing bowl.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the finely crushed cookies, chopped nuts, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder.

3. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the dark rum and vanilla extract. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is moist.

4. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour. This helps the mixture firm up, making it easier to roll.

5. Roll into Balls: Once chilled, scoop out a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).

6. Coat the Balls: Roll each ball in chocolate sprinkles or shredded coconut to coat evenly.

7. Chill Again: Place the finished rum balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for another hour before serving.

8. Serve: Enjoy them cold or at room temperature, and watch them disappear!

By following these steps, you’ll create a batch of indulgent Chocolate Rum Balls that will delight everyone.
