Rum Balls & Hot Buttered Rum Duo
25 mins prepServes 2
A cozy winter duo featuring no-bake rum balls made with vanilla wafers and pecans, paired with a warm, spiced hot buttered rum. Both recipes are enhanced by the rich, warm flavor of Goslings Black Seal Rum.
For the Rum Balls:
1. Pulse the vanilla wafers in a food processor until finely crushed.
2. In a bowl, mix cocoa, 1.5 oz Goslings Black Seal Rum, pecans, and corn syrup. Stir in about half the wafer crumbs.
3. Add more crumbs until the mixture holds together and can be formed into balls.
4. Roll each ball in powdered sugar.
For the Hot Buttered Rum:
1. In a small bowl, mash together the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
2. In a saucepan, simmer the cloves and allspice in 1½ cups of water for 5 minutes, then strain out the whole spices.
3. Divide the spice-butter mixture between two mugs. Add 2 oz of Goslings Black Seal Rum to each.
4. Top with the hot spiced water and stir until the butter melts and the drink is smooth and cozy.
