Rum Balls
I have been wondering how to make the Hungarian kókusz golyó (coconut balls) for quite sometime. My search online brought me to this recipe . Looks easy enough for me. And I'm telling you now it is very easy to prepare! Just make sure you make it a day in advance of the day you plan to serve it.
I've scaled down the recipe to suit the quantity of biscuits in hand (about 110g crushed) ; which yield about 18 balls. The end result I think is quite similar to the original and B said so ,too :)
Note to self
Replaced Nice biscuits to local Győri (Albert) biscuits - scale down to 110g
Replaced sweetened condensed milk to home-made sugar syrup -50g sugar + 20ml hot water
Used essence of rum instead
Soaked raisins (sultanas) in sugar syrup, rum and vanilla extract before adding to dry ingredients.
