Notes
For best results, chill the oats overnight to allow them to thicken properly.
Use natural, drippy peanut butter for easy spreading and better flavor.
Don’t skip the coconut oil; it helps the chocolate harden into a crisp shell.
Adjust sweetness by adding a touch of maple syrup to the oat mixture if using plain yogurt.
