4. Fold in the mini chocolate chips, saving a few for topping if desired.

Notes
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best creamy texture without mushiness.
Adjust sweetness based on your protein powder; some brands are sweeter than others.
For a thinner texture, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk right before serving.
