1. Prepare the cake scraps:
Crush the vegan cake scraps into fine crumbs using your hands or a food processor. Make sure that there are no pieces that are too large.
2. Make the mixture:
Add the cocoa powder, rum (or rum flavoring), nut butter (or margarine or jam) and plant-based milk or orange juice to the cake crumbs. Mix everything well with your hands or a spoon until you have a malleable mixture. If it is too dry, add a little more plant-based milk.
3. Taste and sweeten:
Taste the mixture and sweeten with powdered sugar or agave syrup if required. Optionally, you can also add some cinnamon or vanilla.
4. Form balls:
Form small balls (about the size of a walnut) from the mixture. Roll them between your palms until they are nice and round.
5. Roll:
Roll the rum balls in chocolate sprinkles, grated coconut, cocoa powder or chopped nuts - depending on your taste and what you have on hand.
6. Chill and serve:
Chill the finished balls for at least 30 minutes so that they become firmer. Then enjoy or store in a tin in the fridge.
