CHOCOLATE RUM BALLS


1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 pinch salt
4 tbsp dark rum
1 3/4 cups vanilla wafer crumbs (about 40 small wafers)
chocolate shots for rolling, ground nuts or coconut, for rolling

Combine butter, powdered sugar and chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl. Microwave on low to melt - do not cook.
Stir in beaten eggs and salt until thick and smooth.
Add rum and crumbs then mix well.
Refrigerate until mixture is stiff enough to form balls (about 3 hours).
Roll balls in chocolate shots, ground nuts or coconut. Chill.
Yields: 24-36 balls.
