Makes 24 Balls
3/4 cup chopped figs
3/4 cup vanilla wafer cookie crumbs (about 12 cookies)
3/4 cup walnuts, ground
3/4 cup unsweetened dried coconut, divided
1/3 cup Stevia In The Raw Bakers Bag
4 teaspoons light rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Place the figs, cookie crumbs, nuts, ½ cup of the coconut, and the Stevia In The Raw in the bowl of a food processor and whirl until finely chopped, 30 seconds. Add the rum and vanilla and whirl until the mixture is sticky, about 15 seconds.
Place the remaining ¼ cup coconut in a wide, shallow bowl. One tablespoon at a time, press the fig and nut mixture in your fist, shaping it into a 1-inch ball, making 24 balls. A few at a time, roll the balls in the coconut to coat them.
Coconut Rum Balls are best served the day they are made. If necessary, store in an airtight container at room temperature.
