Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full fat or 2 percent)
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional for smoother texture)
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make transferring frozen bites easier.
- Mix Yogurt Base: In a medium bowl, stir together Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and fully combined for a consistent flavor base.
- Add Coconut Oil: If using, melt the coconut oil and mix it into the yogurt mixture to achieve a creamier texture that freezes well.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the mixture evenly for bursts of chocolate in every bite.
- Portion Bites: Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to avoid sticking, then smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
- Freeze Bites: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours or until the bites are firm and hold their shape.
- Store and Serve: Once frozen, transfer the bites to an airtight container and keep them in the freezer. Let sit 2 to 3 minutes at room temperature before serving to soften slightly for the best texture.
Notes
- You can swap peanut butter with almond or cashew butter as preferred for different nutty flavors.
- For added texture and crunch, mix in chopped peanuts or shredded coconut into the yogurt mixture.
- Store bites in the freezer until ready to eat, as they soften quickly at room temperature.
