• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How to make it

1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl until combined
2. Roll into small balls (about 1 inch)
3. Place on a tray lined with parchment paper
4. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up

Why this works

No baking, no cooking. The oats provide texture, the peanut butter binds everything, and the chocolate chips make it irresistible. Perfect for lunchboxes, post-workout snacks, or afternoon energy.
