My friend called today to ask for an easy Swedish recipe that her daughter could use for a heritage-recipes activity they were doing at church. She said the Swedish recipes she sought online were all complicated, with strange ingredients. Well, I suggested Cocosbollar to her. We actually make Cocosbollar by guesstimation, so I don't have a recipe. Therefore, I found a recipe online and I'm putting it down here, for the record. Enjoy!
No-Bake Swedish Chocolate Cookies (Chokladbollar)
1 1/2 C quick-cooking oatmeal
1/4 C sugar
6 Tbsp butter, softened
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 Tbsp vanilla extract
coconut or pearl sugar* for rolling the outside of the balls

For Everyone Else: 1 Tbsp. Coffee
Directions: Combine butter, sugar, oats, cocoa, vanilla, and (optional) Pero/coffee. Roll into balls about the size of a meatball. Roll balls in coconut or pearl sugar to decorate. Eat immediately, or refrigerate, or freeze. *Pearl sugar is coarsely ground sugar used for decorating baked goods. (Find it at Ikea if you are not close to Sweden.)
