  2. Sweeten the Dough: Gradually add 1/3 cup of honey or maple syrup to the oat mixture and mix until it reaches a sticky dough-like consistency.
  3. Fold in the Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in 1 cup of dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly dispersed.
  4. Shape the Cookies: Portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, creating 12-15 cookie mounds.
