This recipe is from Aunt Nancy's cookbook. Actually she was my Great-grandmother's sister, so that means she was a great-grand aunt. I never knew Aunt Nancy Bouffard, she died back in 1957. Born Nancy Osborn in 1897, she was one of 17 children in a blended family. She kept a little recipe book that I now have. When I can decipher her writing I'll post a few recipes here.
Rum Balls - the ones Alice Colman makes. (marked very good)

1 cup confectionary sugar
1 & 1/2 cups chopped pecans
2 tablespoons cocoa
