These boozy chocolates can be made ahead of time so they're always on hand when friends come over for coffee or a party. They're made with crushed chocolate cookies, and you can choose bourbon or brandy for the alcohol. Make a large batch and store in the freezer for up to a month. Before serving, roll them in colored sugar or other toppings of your choice.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on medium power for 1 minute. Stir and heat again until the chocolate is melted, about 3 minutes, depending on the power of your microwave. Alternatively, place the chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Bring about 1 cm of water to a boil in a saucepan, then place the bowl on top of the saucepan (the bottom of the bowl should not touch the water). Stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Grind the cookies in a food processor until finely ground. You should have about 1.5 cups of crushed cookies. Alternatively, place the cookies in a zip-lock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- Mix the cookie crumbs, prunes, sugar, bourbon, and condensed milk with the chocolate until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until firm enough to form into balls, about 45 minutes.
- Scoop out the chocolate mixture 1 tablespoon at a time and place it on a baking sheet or large plate. Use your hands to form each piece into a smooth ball.
- Store the candies in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or refrigerate for up to a week (freeze for up to a month). Before serving, roll the candies in decorative sugar or crushed cookies.
