Bourbon-Pistachio Balls

Preparation

Melt the chocolate over medium heat in the top of a double boiler set over a pan of simmering water. (Or place chocolate in a microwavable container and melt on low power until smooth, about 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds.) Stir melted chocolate, sugar, corn syrup, and bourbon together in a bowl until blended. Fold in crushed wafers. Set aside ⅓ cup chopped pistachios for coating. Mix remaining nuts into the chocolate mixture to combine. Cover mixture and transfer to the refrigerator to chill until firm, about 1 hour. Roll mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in reserved chopped pistachios. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
