No-Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Balls Recipe Keeps Your Kitchen Cool by Ann Marie Patitucci
Some of us love an opportunity not to use our ovens in the summer. I love a good no-bake recipe. This no-bake chocolate oatmeal balls recipe is one of the easiest and tastiest ones I’ve come across.
One of the things I appreciate about it is that it’s peanut-free. So you don’t have to worry about kids with peanut allergies, and if you skip the optional nuts, it can be entirely nut-free!
