Step 1
Place nuts in a sealable jar. Pour bourbon over nuts; seal and allow to soak for 8 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Line a baking tray with waxed paper; set aside.
Step 3
Melt 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.
Step 4
Roll balls in melted chocolate to coat; arrange on the prepared tray. Store in the refrigerator until serving.
Step 5
Mix sugar and butter in a medium bowl; fold in soaked nuts with bourbon. Form mixture into 3/4-inch balls and refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.
