Refrigerate for a firmer texture or enjoy them at room temperatureโeither way, these no-bake oatmeal cocoa balls are bound to be a hit!
In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Add the softened unsalted butter, cooled brewed coffee, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Use a spatula or your hands to mix everything together until a sticky, uniform dough forms.
Take about 1 tablespoon of the dough and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball. Repeat with the remaining dough until all cocoa balls are formed.
Spread shredded coconut or pearl sugar on a plate or shallow dish. Roll each cocoa ball in the coating of your choice until fully covered.
Place the coated cocoa balls on a tray or plate. Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Serve cold or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
