    Ingredients

    How to make Rum Balls

    • Preheat the oven to about 350 degrees Celsius. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray and keep aside.
    • Add water in a pan and allow it to boil on a low flame. In a heat-proof bowl, melt chocolate and butter over the pan. Stir occasionally. Keep aside.
    • Add brown sugar, vanilla, eggs, and salt in a large bowl and whisk together. Add the chocolate mixture and the flour. Whisk nicely.
    • Pour the batter into the baking sheet. Spread the batter evenly. Bake in the preheated oven until the top turns shiny. Insert a toothpick and check if the cake is done.
    • Allow it to cool on a wire rack. Break the brownie into small pieces, transfer to the electric mixer bowl with a paddle. Set the machine on a low speed and add rum. Continue mixing until all the crumbs form a ball. Shape into 1 in balls and roll in sanding sugar to have a coating of the sugar. Refrigerate with the baking sheet uncovered for approx 2 hours. You could serve it chilled or at room temperature as per individual liking.
    • You could refrigerate rum balls in an airtight container for 7 days. You could also roll rum balls in desiccated coconut.

    Trivia
