Preparation Time: 1 hr
Cook Time: 24 hrs
Ingredients
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 20 chocolate wafer cookies (about 1/2 a 9-ounce box)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pitted prune (about 15 prunes)
- 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

- 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar, for garnish
Recipe
- 1 put chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on medium power for a minute. stir and repeat until the chocolate melts, about 3 minutes in all depending on the power of your microwave. alternatively, put the chocolates in a heatproof bowl.
- 2 bring a saucepan filled with 1-inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl on the pan (without touching the water). stir occasionally until melted and smooth.
- 3 process the cookies in a food processor until finely ground (you should have about 1 1/2 cups ground cookies). alternatively, put cookies inside a heavy re-sealable plastic bag and crush by moving a rolling pin over the cookies.
- 4 stir the cookie crumbs, dried plums, confectioners' sugar, bourbon or , and condensed milk into the chocolate until evenly combined.
- 5 cover and refrigerate the mixture until firm enough to roll into balls, about 45 minutes. scoop a tablespoon or so of the mixture into small balls with a cookie or small ice cream scoop and set a baking sheet or a large plate. roll each portion by hand into a smooth ball.
- 6 store booze balls in an air tight container at room temperature for a day to allow the flavors to come together. store balls in the refrigerator for a week or freeze for up to 1 month.
- 7 to serve, put the sugar on a plate and roll the balls in it to coat. serve at room temperature.
