I followed the recipe but I could not get the batter thick enough to form a ball. I tried adding more powered sugar and that did not help. What did I do wrong? How could I have fixed the batter so it would form a ball?
The key is letting the batter chill up. Put in the freezer. Take out and roll some and then put the rolled balls in the freezer.
