Candy Recipes - Truffles, Balls and Bon Bons

Chocolate Hazelnut Balls

1 box vanilla wafers
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup Frangelico hazelnut liqueur
3 tablespoons corn syrup
confectioners' sugar for dusting

Pulverize the vanilla wafers to powder in a food processor.

Melt the chocolate chips (microwave works well), taking care not to burn them.

Combine wafers, chocolate, hazelnuts, liqueur and corn syrup; mix until blended. Form into bite-size balls.

Roll in confectioners' sugar, brushing excess sugar off for marbled look and less dusty eating.
