Notes: 

Oats: To use Old Fashioned Oats, add oats to a food processor or blender and pulse until they are about 1/4 the original size. If you have quick oats, those can be used as is with no prep work.

Cooling: The chilling time of this recipe is very important to ensure that the amazing ingredients in Chocolate Collagen stay potent. To receive the benefits of Bromelain—clear sinuses, enhanced digestion, and more—the temperature must stay low.
