Add the honey and rum and mix together with a fork. If you find the mixture too wet then refrigerate for about an hour. If the mixture is too dry then add more Rum (½ tablespoon at a time). Try rolling a ball first before adding more Rum, because it may look dry but they may come together without anything extra added.

Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls, roll them in cocoa, icing sugar or even dip in melted chocolate (or coating of your choice). Place them on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
