Ingredients

  1. Put all ingredients into a blender and pulse roughly to help break up ingredients. Continue to process mixture until it can be rolled together into a large ball. If the mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until mixture comes together.
  2. Get the kids to help roll the mixture into small balls and place on a silicone mat or a tray lined with baking paper.
