Silly NBC... Those little balls were not for cooking....

They were used by Mayan patriots in their clay ammo-based primitive muskets to protect their liberty against the growing Mayan leviathan. Alas, it was not enough, and they did not make it as a civilization to the end of their calendar .

Clay balls unearthed at Mayan site probably belong to John Boehner.

Well, I hear in Haiti, they make mud cookies to eat and sell.

Clay balls must be a delicacy

The cooks put their balls in the soup? “You’re a better man than I Gunga Din!”

If you want a Mayan themed dinner drink, here is a
good facsimile. They called cocoa “xocoatl”. This
drink, “chocolatl”.

6 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
6 teaspoons vanilla
4 cups boiling water
ground chili pepper to taste

Grate the unsweetened chocolate into a bowl and cover it with a little of the boiling water. Mash the mixture into a
paste. Add the rest of the water and vanilla and mix. When cool, beat with an electric mixer until frothy. Add the
chili pepper to liven up the drink.

The chocolate will not totally dissolve and will have a grittiness to it.

Since it is not sweet, you probably won’t want to drink
as much of it, so it can be served in a demitasse, like Turkish coffee instead of a coffee cup. It is for adult palates only.
