One of my occasional weakness is RUM Balls. Packed with nuts, cocoa, shortbread and a generous dose of concentrated rum, they are perfect for afternoon tea - especially combined with a cup of hot capuccino!
This easy-to-make dessert or sweet is commonly found in our local bakeries, in different sizes, coating, and even shapes. One of my favourite outlets do not even call it rum but MUR! Yes, the people at Polar Puffs has decided to keep the monicker but with a twist. This is to meet the halal standard. Han's cafe also does a pretty mean Rum ball. If you are fortunate, you can get one at your nearest outlet - as some do not stock the balls at all!
Rum balls also make pretty presents for friends. Wrapped in coloured cellophane and tied with a ribbon, your friends will certainly appreciate your presents with a difference - especially if you had make the balls yourself! Try it out the next time you need to get a gift and drop me a line on your experience.
