Chocolate oatmeal

Being in colder weather I have now stirred away from my pancake obsession and started making warm oatmeal instead. Seeing that I’m a chocoaholic my favourite one is chocolate oatmeal. I love to thicken this oatmeal a lot to end up with a very chocolatey and gooey oatmeal. So good, it’s like having dessert for breakfast! It’s a very easy and quick breakfast to make and quite fulfilling. I love to serve mine with fresh strawberries.
