I used old fashion oats, 1/2 tablespoon of unsweetened coco powder and 1 TBSP unsweetened shredded organic coconut. 197 calories and 1 gram of sugar!!!!
I bet if you add almonds it would taste like an almond joy :tongue: we have nut allergies in our house so we can't try it but I bet its good lol

I hope you all enjoy it as much as my kids and I did :love:

    I have had trouble with cocao and oatmeal in the past - Do you mix the powder in once the oatmeal is fully cooked? Also - What kind of cocao do you find works best? Thanks!

    Glad that you all liked the idea it is really good!!!

    meagalayne- I used the Hershey brand and yes I mixed the cocoa and the coconut in the bowl that they just dumped the hot oatmeal over it. You could alway add a little milk if you wanted to or even some almond milk to give it that almond joy taste :wink:

    Made this tonight before work! Steel-cut oats, about 1/5th or so cup of almond milk, 2 tsp of cocoa powder (unsweetened) and 2 Tbsp of (sweetened) shredded coconut. Was super fabulous and an amazing treat before a long night shift!
    Thank you for the suggestion! :heart:
