They say that these Swedish chocolate balls, known as chokladbollar, are the first thing a Swedish child learns to make, and for good reason; they're easy to do, there's no baking required, and mixing the "dough" together makes for a fun activity. They sure beat snacking on a candy bar during the afternoon slump, as the fats and whole grain keep you satisfied much longer, while the coffee and cocoa provide the perfect pick-me-up.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups quick-cooking rolled oats: 1 piece
  • white sugar: 0.5 cup
  • ½ tablespoons cocoa powder: 3 piece
  • pinch kosher salt: 1 piece
  • pinch cayenne pepper: 1 piece
  • unsalted butter: 0.25 cup (softened)
  • coconut oil, at room temperature: 0.25 cup
  • vanilla extract: 1 tsp
  • strong brewed coffee: 2 Tbsp
  • unsweetened grated coconut: 0.5 cup (or as needed)
