Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Quick Oats vs Old Fashioned Oats - you can really use either, but my kids prefer the version with quick oats as they are less chewy. I like them both ways!
Use Mini Chocolate Chips - I used regular size chocolate chips this time when I made them, but I love using mini chocolate chips because they distribute around more evenly and result in less big chunks throughout the oat balls.
Peanut Butter Chips - if you're not a fan of butterscotch, you can swap them for peanut butter chips or just add more chocolate chips.
Storage - store these oat balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
