  3. Stir in 1/4 cup Kahlua (or a combination of 1/8 cup each of your chosen liquors: dark rum, Grand Marnier, and Baileys Irish Cream).
  4. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup chopped walnuts and 1 cup finely crushed chocolate wafers.
  5. Gently fold the walnut and wafer mixture into the chocolate mixture until evenly combined.
  6. Using a spoon or your hands (lightly oiled), shape the mixture into 1-inch balls.
