Ingredients | Brazilian Chocolate Ball Recipe

4 cups regular rolled oats

1 ¼ cups white sugar

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup butter or margarine, softened

2 tablespoons strong coffee

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened baking chocolate, melted

⅓ cup coconut flakes

Directions

Mix the oats, sugar, and cocoa together in a bowl. Add the butter, and use your hands to mix the ingredients together to make a thick dough. Mix in the coffee, vanilla, and chocolate until thoroughly blended.

Place the coconut flakes in a small bowl. Pinch off small amounts of dough and roll between your hands to make small balls, about 1-1/2 inches in diameter. Roll the balls in the coconut flakes. Balls are ready to eat, or may be refrigerated 2 hours to become firmer.

These chocolate balls are also often flavored with Swedish 'Punsch' liqueur or arrak extract, which gives them their name as 'Arrak Balls.' They can also be rolled in chocolate sprinkles or chopped toasted almonds. Place the balls in small paper candy cups for serving at holiday parties.
