Recipe: Irish Coffee Balls (no bake)

IRISH COFFEE BALLS

3 1/2 cups vanilla wafer cookie crumbs
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 1/2 cups sifted confectioner's sugar, divided use
3 Tbsp. instant coffee granules
1/3 cup Irish whisky
1/3 cup light corn syrup

In a large bowl, combine the cookie crumbs, pecans, and 1 cup of sugar.

Dissolve coffee granules in Irish whiskey in a small cup. Add to dry mixture along with corn syrup, mixing until blended.

Shape mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll in remaining sugar. Store in an airtight container. Cookies become more flavorful after sitting 2 to 3 days.
