Hey there! I absolutely love bourbon balls and have definitely wondered about their calorie count. From my experience, they can be pretty high in calories since they're made with ingredients like bourbon, chocolate, and sugar.
But here's what I do to enjoy them without feeling too guilty: eating in moderation like one or two at a time instead of eating a bunch, I sometimes make my own so I can control the sweetness and I use dark chocolate instead of other kinds of chocolates and eating them only during special occasions. They’re a decadent treat, but you can enjoy them without overindulging with a bit of balance. Hope this helps!

If you're making them yourself, you can control the ingredients a bit more. You can use things like whole wheat flour or sugar substitutes (although that might affect the taste and texture).
