Rum Balls

Cooking time: 25 minutes
Servings: 10

Delicious rum balls just like the baker's! In the recipe, I used chocolate cake, cinnamon rolls, donuts, and Berliner (doughnuts). With marzipan, it gives a super delicious texture and taste. I love rum ball mixture, for example, try my recipe for student bread if you also love rum balls!
