    Zinfandel Port Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    Makes about 4 dozen cookies

    1 package (12 oz.) vanilla wafer cookies
    1/2 cup Dutch cocoa
    1 cup dark corn syrup
    1/2 cup Greenstone zinfandel port or other port
    About 1/2 cup powdered sugar

    In a food processor, combine cookies, cocoa, and pecans. Whirl until reduced to fine crumbs; pulse for several seconds.

    Or by hand, put cookies in a heavy-duty plastic bag, seal shut, and crush cookies with a rolling pin. Finely chop pecans and mix with cookie crumbs and cocoa.

    Add corn syrup and port. Continue to blend or mix until well blended, about 15 seconds if using a food processor.

    Using your hands, form dough into 1-inch balls; roll in powdered sugar. Serve, or store airtight up to one month; for longer storage, freeze up to two months. Just before serving, roll balls in more powdered sugar if a white snowball effect is desired.
