# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They satisfy that cheesecake craving without turning on your oven or spending hours babysitting a water bath
  • The texture is somewhere between cookie dough and truffle, which is basically the best of both worlds
02 -
  • The dough will feel sticky and slightly alarming at first—that's completely normal and exactly how it should be
  • If it's genuinely too dry to roll into balls, add just one teaspoon of milk at a time until it cooperates
03 -
  • A small cookie scoop makes perfectly uniform portions and keeps your hands from getting incredibly sticky
  • Rolling the balls with slightly damp hands prevents the mixture from sticking to your palms like glue
