Good afternoon everyone. I am doing some cooking. First on the agenda is rum balls made to my grandmother's recipe.
For those playing along at home, here's the recipe
Rum Balls
250g butter, softened
500g icing sugar
4 Tbs cocoa
4 Tbs coconut
1/2 cup chopped sultanas
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup stale cake crumbs
2 Tbs rum (I think I may use a bit more than this...)
Chocolate sprinkles*
Mix all ingredients except sprinkles, roll into balls (mine are about 1.5cm diameter), roll balls in sprinkles, put in the fridge to harden.
* I am not sure how well chocolate sprinkles translates to an international audience. The ones I'm referring to are cylindrical (ie. not spherical) and chocolate flavoured (not pure chocolate)... I use Dollarettes
