Ingredients

Overnight Oats Base

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder or cookies and cream protein powder
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 2 crushed Oreo cookies plus more for topping

Chocolate Topping

  • 1/3 Lily’s white chocolate cookies and cream bar
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or mason jar, mix the oats, chia seeds, protein powder, crushed Oreo cookies, and almond milk until well combined.
  2. Refrigerate: Cover and refrigerate the mixture overnight or for at least 8 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soften and absorb the liquid.
  3. Melt Chocolate: When ready to serve, microwave the white chocolate bar and coconut oil in a small bowl in 10-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Assemble and Serve: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the chilled oats. Let it sit for a minute to harden slightly, then top with additional crushed Oreo cookies and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use a mason jar with a lid for easy mixing and storage.
  • Adjust sweetness by choosing flavored protein powder or adding a sweetener if desired.
  • For a dairy-free option, ensure the protein powder is plant-based and use almond milk.
  • Can be eaten cold straight from the fridge or warmed up if preferred.
  • Additional toppings like fresh berries or nuts can be added for extra texture and flavor.
