For a smoother texture, use finely ground walnuts or almond flour instead of chopped walnuts.
If the mixture is too sticky to handle, try chilling it for an additional hour before shaping.
Experiment with different flavors of gelatin dessert mix to create a variety of fruit-flavored balls.
These can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For a festive touch, use red and green sprinkles instead of gelatin powder for coating.
Consider adding a touch of almond extract or vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.
