Sounds like perhaps there was too much liquid in the ingredients. Generally, cream cheese when softened will firm again when chilled. Next time, try rolling into a ball,wrapping in plastic wrap and chilling until firm. When firm, unwrap and roll in crushed gingersnaps or nuts.

not a comment although it really looks good, but a question. Years ago I had a pumpkin ball at a party coated with gingersnaps and served with gingersnaps. Tried to make a pumpkin ball myself. While it tasted really good, it wouldn’t form a ball. What could I do to make it roll into a ball. I wondered about gelatin. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
