Ingredients:

For the Yogurt Mixture:

  • 120g (1/2 cup) full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 15g (1 tablespoon) smooth peanut butter
  • 10ml (1/2 tablespoon) maple syrup
  • 5ml (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract
  • 25g (1/4 cup) crushed pretzels, granola, or nuts (I used pecans)

For the Chocolate Coating:

  • 85g (1/2 cup) dark chocolate chips
  • 10ml (2 teaspoons) coconut oil
  • Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
  • Pinch of cinnamon for topping (optional)

Prepping & Cooking Time:

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Instructions:

1 Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth and fully combined.

Gently fold in the crushed pecans (or your choice of mix-ins) for added crunch and texture.

2 Shape and Freeze the Bites:

Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Using a spoon, portion out the yogurt mixture into 6 small mounds on the tray.

Place the tray in the freezer and let them firm up for 20-25 minutes, or until they hold their shape.

3 Melt the Chocolate:

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil in 15-second intervals, stirring between each round to prevent burning.

Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate using a double boiler—place a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir until smooth.

If the chocolate is too thick, add an extra teaspoon of coconut oil to thin it out.

4 Dip  and Finish:

Remove the frozen yogurt bites from the freezer.

Using a fork or spoon, dip each bite into the melted chocolate, coating it fully. Let any excess chocolate drip off.

Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor (optional).

Return the coated bites to the parchment-lined tray and place them back in the freezer for at least 10 minutes to set.

Pro Tips:

  • Let them sit before eating – For the best texture, let them sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes before biting in.
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt – This prevents an icy texture and keeps them creamy.
  • Thin out the chocolate if needed – If your chocolate is too thick, mix in a little extra coconut oil to get that smooth, silky coating.
  • Get creative with mix-ins – Swap pretzels for granola, cacao nibs, or chopped nuts to change up the crunch.

FAQs:

Can I make these vegan?

Yes! Simply use dairy-free coconut yogurt and vegan chocolate for a plant-based version.

Why is my chocolate too thick?

If your melted chocolate is too thick, add an extra teaspoon of coconut oil and heat it slightly to loosen it up.

NICE TO MEET YOU!
Between my career, my two daughters and bonkers spaniel my days are busy, but I always try to squeeze in time for a little creativity. Whether that be up-cycling vintage furniture, singing with my husband or experimenting in the kitchen with plates that are playful, surprising, and full of heart. Food is at the centre of family life and I believe life is too short not to eat something scrumptious together everyday.
