For enhanced flavor, toast the oats lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the mixture. If the mixture seems too dry, add a teaspoon of water or almond milk at a time until it reaches the desired consistency. Experiment with different nut butters, such as peanut butter or cashew butter, for a unique twist. Add a pinch of sea salt to enhance the sweetness of the chocolate. These bites can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week, or frozen for longer storage.
