Main Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full fat)
- 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
- Mix the base: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and fully blended, ensuring an even flavor throughout.
- Form and freeze bites: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion the mixture into about six evenly sized bites and place them on the tray. Freeze for 10–20 minutes until they become firm to the touch.
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil in short bursts of 15-20 seconds, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.
- Coat the bites: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, fully coating them. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top to enhance the flavor contrast.
- Set the chocolate: Return the coated bites onto the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15–20 minutes, allowing the chocolate coating to set completely before serving.
Notes
- Use dairy-free yogurt and chocolate for a vegan version.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with agave, honey (for non-vegan), or stevia.
- Store the frozen bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness.
- Using a cookie scoop helps achieve evenly shaped portions for uniform freezing and presentation.
