For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. If the dough is too soft, add a bit more rolled oats. Store the chocolate balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For a vegan version, substitute the butter with more coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative.

Follow The Directions
01
StepToast the Oats: In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the rolled oats until they become fragrant and lightly golden, stirring frequently. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
02
StepCombine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, salt, cayenne pepper (if using), softened butter, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and cooled coffee. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
03
StepIncorporate Oats: Add the toasted oats to the wet ingredients. Mix thoroughly until all the oats are well coated and the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
04
StepShape into Balls: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, portion the dough into small, uniform balls. Aim for about 1-inch in diameter.
05
StepCoat with Coconut: Roll each ball in the shredded coconut, ensuring it is fully coated. Gently press the coconut onto the surface to help it adhere.
06
StepChill and Set: Place the coconut-covered balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate. Refrigerate for at least 20-30 minutes to allow them to firm up and set.
