Ensure the peanut butter mixture is firm: If it's too soft, sprinkle in additional powdered milk, a half-tablespoon at a time, until you reach the right consistency.
Watch out for warm hands: They can soften your dough. If this happens, chill the mixture in the refrigerator to firm it back up before continuing.
Chocolate Lovers Alert: Transform your peanut butter balls into "buckeyes" by dipping them in melted chocolate. Just remember to refrigerate them afterward.
More is Merrier: If you're serving a larger crowd or just want extra for yourself, simply double the ingredient amounts to make a bigger batch.
