These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I had a hard time getting the balls to hold their shape. I think I might have added too much flour.

These were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. They're still a good recipe and I would recommend them to others.
