Bourbon Balls {No Bake Recipe!}

1 ½ cups raw pecans

2 ½ cups gingersnap cookie crumbs (about 50 small cookies such as Nabisco; leftover gingersnaps work too!) or vanilla wafer crumbs or chocolate wafer cookie crumbs

⅛ teaspoon kosher salt

½ cup bourbon (I love Maker's Mark or Buffalo Trace for bourbon balls but any good bourbon here will work nicely; see notes for a non-alcholic version)

1 cup powdered sugar

3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1 ½ tablespoons molasses honey, or pure maple syrup (I like molasses for the intense flavor)

For rolling: Crushed cookie crumbs sprinkles, sanding or coarse sugar, finely chopped nuts (I don't recommend powdered sugar, as it becomes soggy)
