Directions:
Place the nuts in a seal-able jar. Pour the bourbon over the nuts. Seal and allow to soak overnight.

Mix the vanilla wafer crumbs, powdered sugar, cocoa, corn syrup and salt together, fold in the soaked nuts. Form into 3/4" balls and refrigerate overnight.

Line a tray with waxed paper. Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over just-barely simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Roll the balls in the melted chocolate to coat; arrange on the prepared tray.

Store in refrigerator until serving.
