I loved these because they were so good and a snap to make. I didn't really notice the coffee flavor in the finished cookie, so I may add some instant granules in addition to the 2 Tbsp of coffee listed in the ingredients next time around. Definitely will make again! THANKS for sharing a wonderful recipe. This is a keeper!

this recipe is awsome, brought back childhood memories. I added 2 tbsp. of bourbon, can use rum to and a touch more oatmeal to absorb extra moisture, everyone was in wow over them. I found they were much better with quick oats to, made some with reg. oats and they were chewy. when I make them again, I will put mixture in fridge for 15 min. think it will make rolling a little less messy

Very easy and quick to make. I love these no bake dessert recipes! They went over big with my husband who's a real chocaholic. He suggested that the mixture sit for a while so the oats soften a bit. I'll see how that goes when I repeat the recipe. I am tempted next time to add some chocolate liqueur. Couldn't hurt!

I made these for a party. Each person who tried one, put it aside without finishing it. Most went to waste.

It's so nice to find a no-bake cookie with cocoa in it that does not call for coconut. My husband is allergic, and just omitting that ingredient sometimes wrecks the recipes. This was really good. I used 2 heaping tablespoons of cocoa and more like 3 tablespoons of really strong coffee. The coffee was still warm, but I put the dough in the fridge so it would be easier to roll into balls. I used icing sugar to coat the cookies. This made around 22 smallish cookies, but they're soooo good. I agree with previous reviewers, the batter was disappearing almost as fast as I was rolling it... Thanks, Manuela, for sharing!

I remember these from when I was a little kid in Denmark. They're also really good rolled in grated coconut.

I was good. I used the sugar in the raw and it worked out great. I had to re-refrigerate a portion in the middle of a party because they started getting too warm and losing shape. I put half of the batch in the freezer for 10 minutes and then swaped them out with the ones on the table and put those in for 10 minutes. worked like a champ

Made these for my son’s cultural exchange class. He said the kids chased him around the classroom to get the last ones. Used Washed Raw Cane (Turbinado Style) Sugar instead of the pearl sugar and used Starbuck’s Frappuccino (coffee Flavored) instead of regular cold coffee.

Totally awesome - give these a try. They're different then most sweets, and amazingly delicious, although slightly addictive. I added a little more oatmeal to stiffen it up, though. Fantastic. Am going to make another batch right now.
