Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars

When I’m in need of a sweet treat, but want to keep it healthy I always gravitate towards this recipe because it’s SO easy, SO good, and lasts in the fridge for a long time so I can just take one out when I feel the sweet tooth urge comin’ on! These are soft, sweet, and have a little bit of a crunch from the hardened chocolate on top. Here’s how you make them…
