  Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, S_living
       Yield: 60 Servings
  
       6 oz Semisweet chocolate morsels
     1/2 c  Bourbon
       3 tb Light corn syrup
   2 1/2 c  Vanilla wafer crumbs
     1/2 c  Sifted powdered sugar
       1 c  Pecans; finely chopped
            Powdered sugar
  
   Melt chocolate morsels in top of double boiler or in
   microwave. When smoothly melted, remove from heat and
   stir in bourbon and corn syrup. Set aside. Combine
   crumbs, powdered sugar and pecans. Mix well. Stir into
   chocolate mixture; let stand 30 minutes. Shape into 1"
   balls. Roll in sugar. Store in an airtight container
   in refrigerator. Yield: about 5 dozen. Got this from
   December '84 issue of Southern Living magazine. These
   are wonderful--now a holiday tradition at our house!
   You can substitute english walnuts for the pecans. You
   can also use rum instead of bourbon. I have tried
   several combinations, but find the original the best
   to my taste.
