Double Chocolate Cherry Bourbon Balls

Place the chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Cook, stirring the chocolate constantly, until the chips are melted and smooth.

Carefully remove the top of the double boiler and place it on a heat-proof surface. Stir in the corn syrup and bourbon and mix until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine the crushed chocolate wafers, powdered sugar, nuts, and chopped cherries. Stir the chocolate bourbon mixture into the wafers and mix until well blended.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the granulated sugar in a shallow dish.

Form the chocolate cherry mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll the chocolate cherry bourbon balls in the sugar and place on the baking sheet. Let the balls set for 30 minutes before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
