- Place over medium heat and bring to a rolling boil; don't stir once it boils.
- Boil until the soft-ball stage.

- Working quickly, drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and let set at room temperature until firm.
- Quantities vary; it depends on how much you drop from your spoon.

Tips:
- Use old-fashioned oats. They hold their shape better than quick oats or steel-cut oats.
- Don't overcook the oats. They should be chewy, not mushy.
- Add chocolate chips after the oats have cooled slightly. This will prevent them from melting and becoming a chocolatey mess.
- Use a variety of chocolate chips. Semisweet, bittersweet, and milk chocolate all work well in this recipe.
- Add other mix-ins, such as nuts, seeds, or dried fruit. Get creative and make them your own!
- Store the clusters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
