    That's one of my favorite desserts ever. The only difference is, I microwave it and prefer to eat it hot. So. Damn. Good. INCREDIBLY high in calories though, and I can't stick to just "one" measley serving.

    I make something similar. I mix 1 cup of oatmeal, 2 TBSP of peanut butter and 1 TBSP of honey. I eat it with a cut up apple. I eat half of the mix above, my daughter eats the rest. It is higher in calories so I usually eat it for a quick lunch. I find that I don't get hungry until dinner time when I eat this.
  • I also make these but I add coconut to it as well. HAve added other nuts and fruits like dried cranberries too. Been going to add quinoa to it for added protein. These healthy treats are a big hit at home and at work.

    I would substitute hemp seeds for the flax seeds. Sounds good otherwise.

    Instead of the chocolate chips, I add 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes. It is DELICIOUS, but very high in calories. I added it up and for 18 small balls (about 1-inch in diameter) it's 116 calories each ball!

    I wonder if using dark chocolate would be better, it's usually a bit lower in counts. I think i will make a recipe of this to see calorie and etc coutns before actually making it, but it sounds good!
