in the kitchen with annie recipe #1 rumballs

I had a request for those wonderful rumballs I talk about all the time so here it goes:

Directions to make rumballs:

First go the the liquor store and buy a large bottle of rum. You can use any kind really. I like Captain Morgans spiced rum. You only need 1/4 cup for the recipe, the rest is for you.

stop at the store and get the following:graham crackers, cocoa, confectioner's sugar,salt, walnuts,honey, and of course some cheap cola and some coconut.

First go to the cupboard and get yourself a plastic cup, a large one. Fill the cup 1/4 full with the rum and the rest of the way with the pop, this is for you. Place it on the counter behind your other ingredients, no one will know you are drinking. Works like a charm

take 2 cups of the graham crackers and add 2 tablespoons cocoa, 1 cup confectioner's sugar, 1/8 tsp salt, 1 cup walnuts chopped fine, mix this together.

combine 1 and 1/2 tsp honey with 1/4 cup rum. You can also use brandy if you have downed all the rum already. Mix this crap all together with your hands, roll in coconut and throw in the fridge. If you don't have any honey, maple syrup will work. The cheapie stuff is fine.

Pour more pop in the glass and add 2 fingers of the rum to it again. My fingers are larger than the ordinary fingers from milking cows all those years, doesn't matter, just fill that plastic cup up once again.

Store these in a plastic container, they keep forever.

Open up your cupboards and try to find the tupperware container you got for a gift for your wedding 20 years and store these babies indefinately.

Pour yourself another drink.

Do the dishes, put the crap away. Pour yourself another drink.

Hide the bottle in the bottom of the garbage so your husband doesn't see that you have downed a whole bottle of rum in one day.

Holiday hint: these are very good served with a pack of Marlboro cigarettes.

that's it, very easy no oven required, so if your electricity gets turned off you can still make rumballs.

Tomarrow I will teach you my recipe for beer bread , it is awesome. On the way home from work, go and buy a 30 pack today so I can show you that one. You will need 1 can of beer for each loaf. I can usually get 10 loaves of bread from a 30 pack.



Talk later!!
