I understand the other reviews about how they were hard to actually get to stay together as balls, and this is how I did it:

I added a little extra peanut butter than the recipe called for; I used regular Jiff, and it worked fine.

This is the key though. You HAVE to keep your hands wet. If they get covered in the peanut butter gloop, you won't be able to form the balls. If your hands stay wet it works. I then chilled them and they made great lunch sack snacks for the adults and the kids.

The recipe is quick and easy! Which is a plus for me.
However, the owners of the recipe obviously know very little about college sports! She referred to the Kentucky wildcats as the Louisville widlcats! FYI..... It's the Louisville cardinals and the Kentucky wildcats! I don't think Kentucky or Louisville fans would appreciate the mishap!

If you are having trouble making these into balls, you can use a mini-muffin tin. Just scoop the mixture into the muffin tin wells and press down.

I cut down on the granola and left them in the refrigerator for about 24 hours. Then, I was able to form them into balls.

These are sooo delicious! I agree they were difficult to roll into balls. I ended up changing the portions of ingredients which helped rolling them. I ended up using approximately: 6 1/2 T. of peanut butter (regular, creamy 2 1/2 T. of honey; 2 1/4 cups of granola; and 2 T. of milk. Please note these measurements are approximate. I just kept adding here and there to try and make it easier to roll which eventually helped a lot! I got them rolled without having to refrigerate first. They are in the fridge now but I don't think they'll be there long they are sooo good!

I'm only 13, and I love to cook. We had no granola so I used a trail mix oats cereal. It was probably just as good.

Thanks- Abbie

Made with things most people have in their kitchen, this is a fantastic snack food! It takes only a few minutes, but the results are satisfying and delicious! All of the ingredients lead to a satisfying snack for anyone who needs a mid-day "pick-me-up."
