Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full fat)
  • 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Mix until smooth and well blended.
  2. Step 2: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Scoop the mixture into about six evenly sized bites and place them on the tray. Freeze for 10–20 minutes until firm.
  3. Step 3: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in short bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.
  4. Step 4: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate to coat. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top.
  5. Step 5: Place the coated bites back on the tray and refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until the chocolate sets completely.

Tips & Variations

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture and richer taste.
  • Swap maple syrup for honey or agave syrup to adjust sweetness.
  • Try melting white chocolate instead of dark chocolate for a different flavor.
  • Sprinkle chopped nuts or shredded coconut on top for added crunch.

Storage

Store the yogurt bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying to soften slightly. Avoid storing them in the refrigerator as they may melt.

How to Serve

FAQs

Can I use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt instead?

Yes, you can use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt, but the texture may be less creamy and slightly more icy. Full-fat yogurt gives the best consistency.

How long do these bites take to freeze properly?

They usually firm up in 10 to 20 minutes in the freezer, but for best results, you can leave them in longer to ensure they are fully set before coating with chocolate.
