Chocolate Rum Snowballs Recipe • A Newfoundland Treat! | Club Foody

 Overall I’m a very positive person and my motto is “Everything happens for a good reason!” Even when things are going wrong, at the end, there’s a positive reason why it happened that way. We might not see it like that right away but in the long run, we will.

 
Years ago while vacationing in Mexico with some “supposed” friends, things turned sour between the four of us. Jealousy makes people very ugly (as well as stupid) and the situation wasn’t pretty at all. After our 3rd day down there, we were not hanging out together plus to make things worse, we were sharing our condo with them. The only thing David and I asked was for the four of us to be civil… unfortunately we can’t fix stupid!
 
As I said everything happens for a good reason and on our 4th day of vacation (we were there for 2 weeks), we met these incredible people; Trixie and George from Newfoundland. Right away I connected with this amazing woman! We laughed, went out for dinner, had a few cocktails together and laughed some more. It was simple, fun and uncomplicated.
 
Thanks to technology, Trixie and I have been in touch via facetime, enjoying each other’s company. Every year since we met, we return to Mexico and spend some time together. Distance doesn’t matter because throughout the years, we became much closer. We became such good friends that last year, I asked her to be my Matron of Honor for my wedding that took place this past January in Puerto Vallarta.
 
She has also always supported and encouraged me with Club Foody. Recently, I asked her to share one of her Holiday recipes with me. After looking at it, I couldn’t resist (of course!) adding my own little touch to it and that is when I came up with these Chocolate Rum Snowballs!
 
What a delightful sweet treat! They’re the perfect thing to serve during the Holidays, a mouthful of yumminess. Trixie wasn’t kidding when she told me how delicious they are. The mix of dark cocoa powder, coconut flakes and the rum blend so perfectly together. If there are little ones around, you definitely should skip the rum.
 
I’m sure these are also very good without the added rum but why not indulge ourselves with these Chocolate Rum Snowballs! After all, it’s the Holidays and we all deserve a “grown up” sweet treat to celebrate… Thank you so much my lovely friend for sharing your recipe ♥
Bon Appétit and Happy Holidays!
