RUM-DATE BALLS

1 (7 1/4-ounce) package NILLA Wafers, finely rolled (about 2 cups crumbs)
1/4 cup honey
1/3 cup white rum*
8 ounces (2 cups) walnuts, finely ground
1 (8-ounce) package DROMEDARY Pitted Dates, snipped

Thoroughly blend all ingredients. Shape into 1-inch balls. Wrap each in plastic wrap. The flavor improves with holding. Makes about 5 1/2 dozen.

*If desired, use 1/3 cup orange juice in place of rum and roll in flaked coconut for extra flavor.
