Betty's Version of Maker's Mark Bourbon Balls
Betty demonstrates how to make delicious and seasonal Bourbon Balls, made from the recipe of Maker's Mark. I received this recipe when Rick and I went on a tour of Maker's Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky. (If you are interested in the tour, please view my video, Betty's Trip to Maker's Mark Distillery with Rick.) I wanted to share this recipe with you because it is a perfect candy to have on hand as the holiday season approaches. This candy freezes well, so you can make it early on and have it ready for guests at a moment's notice! I also like them when I have a taste for just a little something sweet. I actually like them better frozen!
Betty's Version of Maker's Mark Bourbon Balls
1 pound box confectioner's sugar
1 stick melted butter
½ cup Maker's Mark bourbon whisky
1 cup chopped pecans
(Also needed: chocolate and paraffin for coating)
Soak nuts in bourbon overnight. Combine all ingredients (except coating materials) and refrigerate until firm. Roll in small balls and dip in Bakers semi-sweet chocolate melted with paraffin. (I used a 12 oz. bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips, mixed with 1 oz. paraffin in a double boiler. I then coated the bourbon balls with the chocolate mixture, and placed them on waxed paper to set up. I placed a single half-pecan piece on the top of each piece of candy, and pressed it lightly while the coating was still hot. I let the finished bourbon balls cool. You can use a refrigerator or freezer to speed up the process. Then I placed them in a candy dish for serving. These bourbon balls are wonderful for serving during the holiday season; also, they make great gifts! Enjoy!!! --And Thanks! to Maker's Mark!

Let’s Get Started!
Yield: 30 Bourbon Balls
Bourbon Balls Recipe
Ingredients:
Dough
2 cups pecans
2 cups crushed vanilla wafers (approximately 8 ounces)
¼ cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa
2 cups confectioners’ sugar plus more for rolling
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
½ cup bourbon, such as Jack Daniel’s
Finishing
¼ cup cocoa powder
¾ cup confectioners’ sugar, divided
Rum ball variation
2½ cups vanilla wafer crumbs
1 cup finely ground nuts or shredded coconut
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
½ cup Meyers rum (light or dark) or your favorite brandy
Extra cocoa or finely ground instant coffee, for rolling
Directions:
First, Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roast the pecans on a parchment-lined baking sheet pan. Bake for 3-5 minutes so they are nice and toasted.
Then, in a food process, process 44 vanilla wafers into crumbs. Add pecans to crushed wafers process until you get a fine powder. Transfer to a medium bowl.
I use this Bourbon from a distillery in Evanston Illinois. The underlying caramel notes are perfect for this bourbon balls recipe. And don't skimp on the bourbon!
I also use my private label vanilla - it's aged in a cognac barrel, with citrus, candies fruit notes and spices. It smells so good in here, The bourbon, chocolate and roasted pecans make the kitchen very aromatic.
Finish the balls: take 1 tablespoon full and roll them into a ball. Perfectly moistened by the bourbon.
Sift remaining ¼ cup cocoa with ¼ cup of remaining confectioners’ sugar in a large mixing bowl. Watch the video to see the mixture consistency.
Coat the bourbon balls in the cocoa-sugar mixture to coat.
