Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1. Gather all ingredients on a clean countertop for easy access.
- 2. In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats and cocoa powder until well combined.
- 3. In another bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth. If necessary, microwave for about 15 seconds to soften the peanut butter.
- 4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. If too crumbly, add an extra splash of honey or peanut butter to achieve the right consistency.
- 5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- 6. Transfer the mixture to a lined baking dish and firmly press it down with your hands or a spatula to ensure it holds its shape once set.
- 7. Chill in the refrigerator for about one hour before cutting into squares or bars.
