Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup yogurt (plain, vanilla, or chocolate)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Layering Ingredients
- ¼ cup crushed graham crackers
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons mini marshmallows
Optional Toppings
- More chocolate chips
- More mini marshmallows
- Whipped cream
- Additional crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- Combine the Base: In a mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, cocoa powder, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
- Layer It Up: Divide half of the oat mixture evenly into two mason jars or containers. Then add a layer of crushed graham crackers, followed by mini chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Repeat the layering process with the remaining oat mixture and toppings until the jars are full.
- Chill: Seal the jars with their lids and place them in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the oats to soak and the flavors to meld.
- Serve & Enjoy: In the morning, gently stir the oats to combine the layers. Add extra crushed graham crackers, chocolate chips, and marshmallows on top. For an extra decadent touch, toast the marshmallows on top before eating if desired.
