Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add the creamy peanut butter and honey or maple syrup. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Add the gluten-free rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt (if using). Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll it into balls. Place each ball onto the prepared baking sheet.
Once all the balls are rolled, transfer the baking sheet into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the treats to firm up.
Store the treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
