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
Optional
- Flaky sea salt for topping
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Form Bites and Freeze: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Scoop the yogurt mixture into about six evenly sized bites using a spoon or cookie scoop and place them on the tray. Freeze the bites for 10 to 20 minutes until they are firm and hold their shape.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips along with the coconut oil. Heat in short bursts (about 15-20 seconds), stirring between each until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Coat Bites in Chocolate: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate to coat it evenly. Optionally, sprinkle a small amount of flaky sea salt over the coated bites to enhance the flavor.
- Set Chocolate: Return the chocolate-coated bites to the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely, creating a crisp outer shell.
Notes
- Use dairy-free yogurt and dairy-free chocolate chips to make a vegan version of this recipe.
- You can substitute maple syrup with agave nectar, honey (not vegan), or stevia based on your preference or dietary needs.
- Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness.
- Using a cookie scoop helps create uniformly sized and shaped yogurt bites for even freezing and chocolate coating.
