Even though we’ve had many hot days here in the UK, that shouldn’t stop us from the joy of making our own treats. The way around it is to make desserts that don’t require you turning on the oven. The last thing you want on a hot stuffy day is to add to the unbearable heat by turning on the oven unnecessarily.

Treats like these peanut butter chocolate oat cups are perfect for such warm and clammy days. They’re no-bake and they’re served cold straight from the fridge. The no baking part also means they’re a lot faster to make and less fuss. Oh and did I mention they taste freaking amazing? ?
As well as being really easy to make, these cups are healthier than your average treat as they’re made with oats, peanut butter and dark chocolate with a little bit of maple syrup to sweeten.
A must try if you like peanut butter, chocolate and/or caramel!
