For an extra touch of indulgence, add a tablespoon of chocolate chips during the last minute of cooking. Feel free to substitute other nuts for walnuts, such as pecans or almonds. Adjust the amount of cocoa powder to your preference for a milder or more intense chocolate flavor. This oatmeal can be easily customized with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, seeds, or a dollop of yogurt.

04
StepPour the cocoa mixture into the saucepan with the oats and stir thoroughly to incorporate. Continue to simmer over low heat, stirring frequently, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency and the flavors have melded together beautifully. (10 minutes)
