Ingredients

1/4 cup butter softened
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 Cup brown sugar
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups quick oats
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup M&M's (or mini M&M's)
12 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips OR peanut butter chips
2 tablespoons shortening (ie Crisco)
additional M&M's, oats, etc for garnish

Instructions

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter, peanut butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla.
Stir in the oats, mini chocolate chips and M&M's.
Let mixture chill in the fridge for at least an hour (it'll be easier to work with!).
Roll the mixture into balls; set in fridge while you make the coating.
In a microwave-safe bowl, stir together the chocolate chips (or peanut butter chips) and shortening.
Microwave at 50% power for 45 seconds. Stir. If it's not completely melted, microwave in 15 second intervals (at 50% power) until melted.
Dip the balls in the coating and place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle with M&M's and oats.
Let chill and enjoy!
