Directions
Chocolate Cherry Kid Friendly Rum Balls, My family has been making these rum balls for as long as I can remember We use light cream cheese (which MUST be block style as it is firmer than tub style) to make them lower in fat, and rum extract as that is what we prefer My mom always let my brother and I cover the rum balls in the chocolate sprinkles which was a highlight of the holiday preparations
