2. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough and roll it into a 1-inch ball. Repeat with remaining dough, placing each ball on a plate lined with wax paper. (Dough will feel slightly oily. Don’t worry. The oil will absorb into the dry ingredients as the bites chill.)
3. Drizzle each ball with melted dark chocolate, if desired.
4. Refrigerate bites 30 minutes to set up.
