Pop in the Mouth Meatballs

This is from 365 Low-fat dishes. The description says “appetizers are called meze in Greek, and these savory little morsels are flavored with currants, pine nuts, mint, and cinnamon.” Serve them with plain yogurt. I’m posting this for ZWT. Prep time does not include 1 hour chilling time.
