1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 packages (6 ounces each) semisweet chocolate bits
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup rum
powedered sugar to coat rum balls
1. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt
2. Melt chocolate and butter in saucepan or microwave. Transfer to large bowl and combine with sugar, eggs and extract. Mix well.
3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Add sifted dry ingredients and mix. Spread batter in greased 8 inch square pan. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. At this point, cake will not be done; in fact it will be wet in center.
4. Cool briefly (about 10 minutes) then cut cake into large pieces and transfer to large mixing bowl.
5. Add rum and mix well. Let mixture cool completely.
6. Form into 1 inch balls. Mixture will be slightly sticky. Roll balls in powdered sugar. Makes 4 or 5 dozen.
7. Note: make these rum balls a week or two before you want to serve them to let them age and become firm. Continue to add sugar as they age and sugar is absorbed. Keep refrigerated in tightly sealed container.
