Peanut Butter and chocolate! These overnight oats are sure to add some excitement into your breakfast

You got chocolate in my peanut butter!

Sorry, couldn’t resist that. I love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter so much – even more than PB & J, or the Elvis combination of peanut butter, banana and honey. But I do love those too! There are so many good things about the peanut butter and chocolate combination. It’s sweet, it’s salty, it’s nutty, it’s chocolaty – it’s just wonderful.

This recipe came about when I was thinking of making a chocolate and vanilla marble overnight oatmeal. But then I thought, “Chocolate and vanilla is good – but chocolate and peanut butter? That’s even better!”

I’ll probably end up still making a marble oatmeal, but for the moment, you’ll have to settle with this:

When making these overnight oats, I always use my favorite vanilla-flavored yogurt. It’s technically not Greek yogurt, but it has a similar thickness.

If you use plain yogurt, you may wish to increase the maple syrup in the chocolate layer (and add some to the peanut butter layer). And if you’re yogurt is quite runny/thin, then reduce the milk to 2 tablespoons per layer.

So, without further ramblings by me, here’s the recipe (below the picture).
