Notes: I used 6 tbsp oats (ground) and the dough was still a tad (or more than just a tad) sticky. Original recipe also said you could microwave it. However, don't do that unless you want it to become hard as a brick after it cools.
Notes: This is the winning recipe because flavor is better, although texture isn't as good.
