Ingredients

For the Overnight Vanilla Oats

1 cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1/2 cup Greek yogurt we used vanilla
3/4 cup unsweetened, plain almond milk or more, if desired
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Fudge

1 tablespoon almond butter
1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon coconut oil melted

For the Healthy Cookie Dough Bites

1/2 cup all-natural, creamy peanut butter
6 tablespoons ground oat flour
3.5 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

For the Fudge

Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and mix.

For the Healthy Cookie Dough Bites

Place all of the ingredients into a medium bowl and mix to combine. The texture should be very similar to classic cookie dough. If it's too thick, add a little water by the 1/2 teaspoon. If it's too thin, add a more oat flour by the 1/2 teaspoon.
Place a piece of parchment paper onto your countertop. Then, roll the dough out into a ball and place it on top of the parchment paper. Flour a rolling pin with oat flour and then roll the dough into a 1/4-inch thick slab. Optionally sprinkle the dough with sea salt.
Place the rolled out cookie dough into your fridge to let set for 15-20 minutes.
Remove from the fridge and use a sharp knife to cut cookie dough into 1/4-inch squares.

For the Overnight Oats

Add all of the ingredients into a medium-sized glass container. Mix to combine and cover. Place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
In the morning, check the consistency of your oats. If you like things a little less thick, add a few more tablespoons of milk.
Serve with the fudge swirl and cookie dough pieces.

Notes

If you don't like your oats super thick, use 1 cup of milk instead of 3/4 cup. Note that you can always add more milk the morning off to thin things out!
Not a fan of the texture of rolled oats? Blend up your oats in a food processor or blender to make them extra creamy!
