Chocolate Coffee Oatmeal Bites

Chocolate Coffee Oatmeal Bites.  The flavors of chocolate and coffee go so well together in these Healthy Oatmeal Bites.

I have been wanting to make some more coffee flavored treats for a while now and I was having a hard time finding the coffee extract.

Well I finally found some on Amazon.  As soon as it was delivered, I got to work making these Chocolate Coffee Oatmeal Bites.  I used a mini muffin pan to make these, so they really are perfectly bite sized.
