- Spoon out a tablespoon of the mixture and roll in your wet hands (use small amounts of water at a time to wet hands). Each ball should be about 1-2 bite-sized pieces. Roll the ball in your desired coating (see the suggestions I made in the above article) and place it on a parchment-lined tray. Repeat until all of the mixture has been used.
- Ensure balls are not touching each other on the tray. Cover the tray lightly with baking paper and place in the freezer, for at least 1-2 hours. Then transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the freezer. Enjoy cold, straight from the freezer.
