  2. Add milk to a small bowl and soak breadcrumbs for 20 minutes.

Cover and chill rest for 1 hour.

  5. Set the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees C).

  6. Using damp fingertips Form the meat mixture into balls with a diameter of about 1 1/2 inches. Place on the baking sheet.

  7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a preheated oven or until golden and baked completely.
