Tastes just like rice crispy chocolate balls but made with puffed oats — dead easy and perfect for Easter baskets.

Instructions

1
Put the coconut fat in a small saucepan and melt it over medium heat. Pull the pan off the heat, break the chocolate into small pieces and add it to the pan. Let it sit until the chocolate has melted, then stir until smooth and glossy.
2
Beat the icing sugar and egg together with a hand mixer on high speed for 5 minutes until you get a light, fluffy zabaglione-like mixture.
3
Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until everything is well combined.
4
Measure out the puffed oats and stir them into the chocolate mixture until evenly coated.
5
Use a tablespoon to drop small mounds onto a baking paper-lined tray. If you like, sprinkle with a little grated orange zest, freeze-dried raspberries, or roughly chopped almonds. Leave them to set until the chocolate is completely firm.
