Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup M&M’s
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Combine Base Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats, peanut butter, and honey until the mixture is well combined and sticky, ensuring all the oats are coated.
- Add Mix-ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, M&M’s, and mini marshmallows, distributing them evenly throughout the oat mixture without melting them.
- Form Cookie Balls: Using clean hands, shape the mixture into small balls about 1 inch in diameter, pressing firmly to help them hold together.
- Prepare for Setting: Arrange the formed cookie balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them slightly apart.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the cookie balls for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up and hold their shape before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute the peanut butter with almond butter or sunflower seed butter for a different flavor or to make it peanut-free.
- Store the cookie balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a crunchier texture, lightly toast the oats before mixing.
- If you want to make them vegan, use vegan chocolate chips and ensure the honey substitute like maple syrup is used instead.
