The image shows four round chocolate-covered treats on a white plate with a white marbled surface in the background. Each treat has a smooth, shiny milk chocolate outer layer. One treat is cut in half and placed on top of another, showing three inside layers: a creamy off-white middle layer with a soft texture, a dark chocolate thin base, and the outer milk chocolate coating. The top of each treat is sprinkled with light beige crumbly bits, adding a textured look. Small crumbs are scattered around the plate. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

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

Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Step 2: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Scoop the yogurt mixture into about six evenly sized bites and arrange them on the tray. Freeze for 10 to 20 minutes until firm.
Step 3: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Heat in short bursts, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
Step 4: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate to coat completely. If you like, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top for added flavor.
Step 5: Place the coated bites back on the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes until the chocolate sets completely.

Tips & Variations

Use natural peanut butter without added sugar for a cleaner taste and better nutrition.
Try substituting maple syrup with honey or agave nectar depending on your preference.
For extra crunch, add chopped nuts to the yogurt mixture before freezing.
If you prefer dairy-free, swap Greek yogurt for a thick coconut yogurt alternative.

Storage

Store these bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. To enjoy, remove a few bites and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating to soften slightly. Avoid thawing completely to keep the chocolate coating intact.

How to Serve

FAQs

Can I use low-fat Greek yogurt instead of full fat?

Yes, you can use low-fat Greek yogurt, but the texture might be slightly less creamy and the bites may be a bit less rich in flavor.

What is powdered peanut butter and can I substitute it?

Powdered peanut butter is defatted peanut flour that adds protein with less fat. You can substitute it with more creamy peanut butter, but the bites will be richer and less low-fat.
