Instructions
- Line a Baking Sheet with Wax or Parchment Paper. Set aside.
- Add Vanilla Wafers to a Food Processor and break the cookies down into small crumbs.
- Pour Wafer Crumbs into a Large Mixing Bowl. Add Powdered Sugar, Brown Sugar, Cocoa Powder, Pecans, and Salt. Whisk to combine.
- Add the Corn Syrup, Honey, and 1/4 Cup of Rum. Mix until crumbly, stiff batter forms. If your batter is a bit too dry, add the additional 2 Tablespoons of Rum. Cover and chill for 1 Hour.
