These no-bake Pumpkin Spice Rum Balls are a delightful boozy treat perfect for holiday gatherings. They combine the warm flavors of pumpkin spice with a kick of rum, all rolled into easy-to-make, bite-sized balls.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup crushed vanilla wafer cookies (about 40 wafers)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dark rum
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Additional powdered sugar for rolling

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed vanilla wafer cookies, chopped pecans, pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, dark rum, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt.
  2. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and form a dough-like consistency.
  3. If the mixture is too dry, add a little more rum, one teaspoon at a time. If it’s too wet, add a few more crushed cookie crumbs.
  4. Place additional powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
  5. Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  6. Gently roll each ball in the powdered sugar until evenly coated.
  7. Place the rum balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up before serving.

Notes

  • For a stronger rum flavor, you can increase the amount of rum slightly, but be careful not to make the mixture too wet.
  • You can substitute the pecans with walnuts or omit them entirely if you have nut allergies.
  • Ensure your pumpkin puree is not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugar and spices.
  • These rum balls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
