Notes

You can also use chocolate chips if you don't have a chocolate bar.

If you don't have oat flour, throw some rolled oats into your blender and pulse until you reach a flour consistency. If you are following a Gluten Free Diet, make sure your oats are gluten free!

If you don't have maple syrup or honey, you can use granulated sweetner.

If you want to make this Dairy Free, make sure to use dairy free chocolate.
