Scoop and make balls. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out balls of the mixture. Roll between your hands to create evenly sized balls.

Chill. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up slightly, then enjoy!

Notes

Store in the fridge: Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.

Store in the freezer: Separate layers of balls with parchment or wax paper so they don’t stick together. Then, store them in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, let them thaw in the fridge overnight.
