When rolling the chocolate balls, you can dip the spoon on hot water and your hands dry, or pat a little cocoa on the palms of your hand if the mixture is too sticky.

Grab a little more than half a teaspoon of the mixture (could be more or less depending on the size of the balls you desire)

With the palms of your hand, roll the balls with the mixture.

You can either roll them over shredded coconut, cocoa powder, podered sugar, finely chopped chocolate, or any other solid ingredient you would like to decorate them with.
