Kentucky Bourbon Balls Candy

Kentucky Bourbon Balls Candy 1 cup chopped nuts 5 tablespoons Kentucky bourbon 1/2 cup butter, softened 1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar 18 ounces semisweet chocolate Place the nuts in a sealable jar. Pour the bourbon over the nuts. Seal and allow to soak overnight. Mix the butter and sugar; 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.
