Notes
– Adapted from my No Bake Peanut Butter Granola Bars and my No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies.
– Here’s the wonderful cookie scoop that I used in this recipe.
– Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. The texture will be about the same in both environments.
