Your holiday bake-off just got a little boozier: try this recipe for bourbon balls, made with Wild Turkey 81 bourbon. Serve alongside your favorite bourbon or single malt for a holiday treat. (Or even some bourbon cocktails, like the Bourbon Fizz!)

INGREDIENTS

2 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers
1 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts (lightly toasted)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 cup Wild Turkey 81 Bourbon
Powdered sugar or other topping

DIRECTIONS

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a medium bowl. Stir in corn syrup and bourbon. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll in powdered sugar for a classic finish, or get creative and roll in unsweetened cocoa powder, crushed nuts, or dip in melted dark or white chocoloate. For a more elegant presentation, place in foil or paper candy cup wrappers. Store in airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
