SWEDISH CHOCOLATE BALLS (OR COCONUT BALLS)
This is a classic Swedish recipe, beloved by every Swede. It is one of the first things children learn to make, and it's enjoyed greatly by all ages. The balls can either be bite-sized or giant, whichever seems more appealing. Or make one big ball, and many small ones. Additional cocoa powder or chocolate can be added to intensify the flavor.

NO COOK COCOA BALLS - CHOCKLADBULLAR
Posted for ZWT6 - Scandinavian Region. I found this on scandinavianfoods.com and thought what a terrific recipe to make with the kids or when you don't feel like heating up the kitchen. Pearl sugar is like large granulated sugar - or very coarse sugar. A good replacement is to coarsely chop sugar cubes if you can't find this in your locale. This recipe gives two options - one using orange juice or the other using cold brewed coffee - I think both options are great choices!

Tips:
- Use good quality cocoa powder: The better the cocoa powder, the better the chocolate balls will taste. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "unsweetened" and has a high percentage of cocoa solids (70% or higher).
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the chocolate balls tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Chill the dough before shaping: Chilling the dough will make it easier to work with and will help the chocolate balls hold their shape better.
- Use a cookie scoop to shape the dough: A cookie scoop will help you make evenly sized chocolate balls. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon.
- Roll the chocolate balls in cocoa powder: Rolling the chocolate balls in cocoa powder will help them stay moist and prevent them from sticking to your hands.
- Store the chocolate balls in the refrigerator: The chocolate balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
These no-cook cocoa balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for a quick snack or dessert. The chocolate balls can be made with a variety of different ingredients, so you can customize them to your own taste. Get creative and have fun!
