Notes
- ✅ Want more crunch? Add crushed nuts or seeds.
✅ Make them lower sugar by using sugar-free chocolate chips and swapping honey for a sugar substitute.
✅ Customizable flavors: Swap peanut butter for almond butter or cashew butter, or add cinnamon, cocoa powder, or coconut flakes.
✅ Freeze for later! These store well in the freezer—just thaw for a few minutes before eating.
