Rum Ball Recipe using Rum Extract?

Question

I am looking for a recipe for Rum Balls using rum extract instead of the liquor. I have not been able to find one or a tool to calculate how much extract I would use to substitute for the rum. Can someone give me a recipe or tell me where to go for substitution conversions? Thank you in advance and Happy Holidays!!

I went searching recipes for this answer for you, I hope it helps:

Fudge Rum Balls


1 package Duncan Hines(R) Moist Deluxe Butter Recipe Fudge Cake Mix
1 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts
1 tablespoon (or more!) rum or rum extract
2 cups sifted confectioners sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
Pecans or walnuts, finely chopped

Preheat oven to 375'F. Grease and flour 13x9x2 inch pan. Prepare,
bake and cool cake following package directions.

Crumble cake into large bowl. Stir with fork until crumbs are fine
and uniform in size. Add 1 cup nuts, rum, confectioners sugar and
cocoa. Stir until well blended. Shape heaping tablespoonfuls
mixture into balls. Garnish by rolling balls in finely chopped
nuts. Press firmly to adhere nuts to balls.


here is another one I found:

4 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup rum (or 1/2 cup water plus 1 t. rum extract)
powdered sugar

Combine crumbs, coconut and nuts in a bowl.
Stir in condensed milk and rum and mix well.
Shape into 1-inch balls and roll in powdered sugar.
Cover tightly and store in refrigerator at least 24 hours, or up to several weeks.
Roll in powdered sugar again just before serving.

and found a third one:
Coconut Rum Balls
Makes: 40 balls
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon rum extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 2/3 to 3 cups sweetened flake coconut
Directions:
Heat oven to 350°.
Coat 2 large baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
In medium-size bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, egg yolks, rum extract and salt on medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes. On low speed, gradually beat in flour just until blended and soft dough forms.

Spread coconut onto a plate. Drop 1 level tablespoon dough at a time onto plate; roll to evenly coat with coconut, forming balls. Place 1 inch apart onto prepared baking sheets.

Bake in 350° oven 18 minutes or until coconut is golden. Transfer cookies to wire rack; let cool completely.

Answer 5

I was just thinking of trying that this weekend. You would have to substitute water for the 1/2 Cup of Rum, but the exact amount of extract I am not sure of. I was just going to taste my rum substitute until I liked it. Start with a TBSP of extract IN the 1/2 measuring cup and add a little water (so you end up with 1/2 cup of liquid) - play with it till you get it 'strong' enough for your taste. Good Luck and Merry Christmas!
