Introduction

Scandinavian treats for any occasion! From Wikipedia: Chokladboll (literally "chocolate ball") is a popular Swedish pastry. The chokladboll is usually slightly smaller than a golfball. The chokladboll consists of oatmeal, sugar, coffee, cocoa, butter, and sometimes a pinch of vanilla sugar, which is mixed to a compact mass. Balls are formed and then rolled in nib sugar, shredded coconut, or sprinkles. Chokladboll can be eaten immediately, but it is usually first placed in the refrigerator for about an hour or in the freezer for those who prefer a harder variety. Because of its simple recipe, it can be quickly made by anyone and is popular at children's parties and as homemade candy. Scandinavian treats for any occasion!

Ingredients

    Oats, 3.5 cup
    Granulated Sugar, 1 cup
    Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened, .5 cup
    Vanilla Extract, 1 tsp
    Butter, unsalted, 10 tbsp
    Regular Coffee, .25 cup (8 fl oz)
    Coconut Shredded, 8 tbsp

Tips

If you don't have a food processor, you can use a pastry cutter to mix the butter into the oats. Results will not be as fine a consistency, but they will taste great.


Directions

In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the oats, sugar, and cocoa to combine. Add the vanilla and butter and pulse again to mix. Add the coffee and pulse until the mixture has come together. Remove the blade and give the mixture a little stir to ensure everything is evenly distributed. Refrigerate 1 hour.

Place coconut in shallow dish. Roll the chocolate-0at mixture into 1 1/4-inch balls, then roll each in coconut. Refrigerate in airtight container.
