Lasts for up to a week when stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
Pro Tip: DO NOT over mix these bad boys or else they will become super dense! Do yourself a favor and hold back the urge to keep mixing!
Optional: Pecans, walnuts, shredded coconut, and cranberries all make for great add-ins if you have them on hand and want to sub them for something else!
