Melt the chocolate and drizzle it on top before refrigerating. It will harden slightly in the fridge, giving you that perfect candy bar crunch when you dig in!

FAQ

Can I prep more jars at once?
Yes, you can easily double or triple the recipe and make several jars at once. They will keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days.

How to reheat or thaw properly?
These oats are best served cold, but if you prefer them warm, remove the toppings and heat the overnight oats mixture in the microwave for 30–60 seconds. Then, add the toppings back.

Sprinkle additional chopped nuts or granola on top for extra crunch.
Pair with a cup of coffee or a protein smoothie for a more filling start to the day.

Storage Suggestions
