Ingredients
Scale
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
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
- 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 well blended, ensuring an even peanut butter flavor throughout.
- Form and freeze bites: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Using a spoon or scoop, portion the mixture into about six evenly sized bites and place them on the tray. Freeze the bites for 10 to 20 minutes, or until they are firm and hold their shape well.
- Melt the chocolate coating: Place dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short bursts of 15-20 seconds, stirring between each until the mixture is completely melted and smooth, ready for dipping.
- Coat frozen bites in chocolate: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, coating it fully. If desired, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top of each chocolate-covered bite to enhance the flavor with a salty crunch.
- Set the coating: Arrange the chocolate-coated bites back on the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden and set completely before serving.
Notes
- For best results, use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamy texture and richer flavor.
- Powdered peanut butter is lower in fat than creamy peanut butter, balancing taste and nutrition.
- The bites can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks.
- To enjoy, let the bites sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before eating for a softer texture.
- Dark chocolate chips can be substituted with semi-sweet or milk chocolate based on preference.
