Here’s a classic, no-bake treat — chocolate balls (also called chocolate truffles, energy balls, or “chokladbollar” in Swedish style). Sweet, rich, and super easy to make!
🍫 Classic Chocolate Balls (No-Bake)
Ingredients (Makes 12–16 balls)
- 1 ½ cups (150 g) crushed cookies or graham crackers (digestive biscuits work well)
- ½ cup (50 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar or powdered sugar
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 2–3 tbsp milk (to bind)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: 2 tbsp finely chopped nuts or coconut flakes
Coating options:
- Sprinkles
- Shredded coconut
- Cocoa powder
- Crushed nuts
⭐ Instructions
- Mix ingredients:
In a bowl, combine crushed cookies, cocoa powder, sugar, and butter.
Add milk and vanilla extract and mix until the dough is sticky but moldable. - Shape into balls:
Use your hands to roll about 1–2 tbsp of dough into small balls. - Coat:
Roll the balls in your choice of coating — sprinkles, coconut, or cocoa. - Chill:
Place on a tray and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes until firm.
⭐ Tips
- Use softened butter to make mixing easier.
- For a fudgier version, melt chocolate and mix in instead of cocoa powder.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
If you want, I can also give a Swedish “Chokladbollar” version with oats and coffee, or a luxury chocolate truffle version with cream and chocolate ganache.
