  2. Add the rest of the ingredients to the mixing bowl and stir for 2-3 minutes until fully combined. At this point, if the dough it very sticky, you can refrigerate it for 1-2 hours or pop it in the freezer for 30 minutes to slightly firm up.
  3. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, form the dough into about 24 tablespoon-sized balls. Place on wax or parchment sheet or dish and refrigerate for about an hour before enjoying.
