NOTES
I use a small cookie scoop to help portion out the bites, and then roll them into nice round balls. If you find the dough is a bit sticky, prior to rolling the dough into balls and you can cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes. Then continue portioning out the dough into small bite-size balls.
