Cook's Notes:
You can also roll the Bourbon balls in different things after dipping in chocolate:
* Toasted and chopped pecans.
* Mini chocolate chips.
* Toasted coconut.
* Chocolate sprinkles.
* Cocoa.
* Powdered sugar.
You can put a maraschino cherry inside the Bourbon ball before dipping -- tasty.
