Makes 4 dozen
You and your blender should have dozens of these ready in way less than half-an-hour. In case your group is too small to eat 48 fabulous little cookies you can freeze some for up to 2 months.
1 12 oz package vanilla wafers
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 cup pecan halves
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup Zinfandel port or other port wine
About 1/2 cup powdered sugar
In your food processor, combine vanilla wafers, cocoa, and pecans. Whirl until wafers are reduced to fine crumbs; then pulse for several seconds. Add corn syrup, port and spin just until well blended.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls between your palms; roll each ball in powdered sugar. When you've rolled enough for your gathering, you're finished. How very easy.
