 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1       c            Powdered sugar
    3       tb           Karo syrup -- white
    2 1/3   tb           Cocoa
    3       c            Vanilla wafers -- crushed
    1       c            Pecans -- chopped fine
      3/4   oz           Rum
 
      To make crumbs, put wafers in plastic bag and roll
   with rolling pin. Pour into bowl and mix above
   ingredients, adding rum last. Shape into balls about
   1" in diameter. Roll in powdered sugar and chill. This
   mixture is sticky, so keep finger and palms of hands
   dusted with 4x sugar while shaping cookies. Store in
   tin box between layers of wax paper.
