Mmmmmmmmmmm!!! I don't think you can go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate and this is a great way to pair them up! I used Lite Hershey's syrup (lower sugar/cal.) and couldn't find 20 min. oats so used Old Fashioned (5 min.) Not too sweet (b/c of the lite syrup probably). Very tasty and easy to put together (took me more than 10 min, though). Thanks for looking it up and posting!!
