Rum Balls

Rum Balls – a classic holiday treat! Crushed cookies, ground pecans, and spiced rum make a delicious no bake dessert. Really cute in cookie tins!

Holiday cookie tin season is my favorite season.

Especially this year when we can’t really hang out with people. So a cute cookie tin filled with delicious treats left on the front porch is a great way to make fun holiday memories with your family and friends. 

My cookie tins always have my favorite cranberry orange cookies, some kind of fudge (maybe eggnog or cookies and cream), and these rum balls! 

Rum balls are so easy and so delicious! They’re completely no bake so you really just have to combine all the ingredients, roll it into balls, and roll the balls into your desired toppings, like powdered sugar or chopped nuts. They’re a holiday classic and a must make!

Hi guys, today I am updating an old post (from 2011! How have I been on the internet that long?!) for Cranberry Meatballs that had terrible pictures because I thought about this recipe the other day and remembered how much I love it. 

You know that grape jelly meatballs that you see at every party and potluck? The ones that you can’t explain why you love them but you can’t stop eating them? These cranberry meatballs are pretty much those meatballs but made with jellied cranberry sauce instead of the grape jelly. They aren’t quite as sweet as the grape jelly ones so if you find those a little too sweet, these will be perfect for you.

Slow Cooker Cranberry Meatballs are the perfect holiday appetier and so easy. Only 3 ingredients and cooked in the slow cooker!

If you are looking for other holiday appetizer recipes, I recommend my Cranberry Brie Bites and Spinach and Artichoke Stuffed Mushrooms.
