Chocolate Coconut Rum Balls

15 Minutes
Is it too early to start making holiday treats? I absolutely love baking around the holidays, making tasty desserts around this time of the year simply feels magical.
A holiday staple at mine every year are these coconut rum balls. They are so easy to make, and they only need six ingredients: crushed graham cracker, cocoa powder, milk, sugar, coconut shavings, and of course - rum. Its likely you already have these ingredients in your pantry. I like to use Malibu Coconut Rum but feel free to use any rum of your choosing. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.

Are the coconut shavings sweetened?
Not sweetened, but you can use sweetened if you prefer a sweeter dessert.
Can you use coconut vodka, instead of the rum.
Absolutely! Any kind of coconut flavored alcohol would taste just as great.
