For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
If you don't have quick-cooking oats, pulse regular rolled oats in a food processor a few times to break them down slightly.
Store the Peanut Butter Drops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (such as peanuts, pecans, or walnuts) along with the oats for added crunch.
