Mix corn syrup with milk and nuts, knead until creamy, and roll into sugared balls.

Steps

1. Put corn syrup in a bowl. Add skim milk and nut meats and stir with a knife until well blended.
2. Shape into a ball and put on a board sprinkled lightly with sugar.
3. Knead until creamy.
4. Let stand until firm enough to shape in 1 inch balls.
5. Roll in sugar. Makes 1 lb.

Notes

• Fruit Balls: Use candied fruit cut small in place of nuts.
• Peppermint Balls: Flavour with 1/4 tsp peppermint instead of vanilla. Omit the nuts using an extra 1/2 cup powdered milk instead.
