Finely crush animal crackers in a food processor- the crackers should look like corn meal at the end of the crushing.
Combine crushed crackers, confectioner''s vegan sugar, cocoa powder, and pecans or walnuts- mix well. Add rum and corn syrup to the dry ingredients- mix, mix, mix!!!
Use one tablespoon of dough per ball. Roll dough between your palms to form a nice ball shape. Roll ball in granulated vegan sugar to coat. Repeat with remaining dough.
Place balls in a covered container (don''t stack the balls, just place them side by side) and leave container in refrigerator for about 2-3 days to allow balls to "cure." Eat and enjoy.
