Tips & Variations

• Use dairy-free yogurt and chocolate for a vegan version.
• Replace maple syrup with agave, honey (non-vegan), or stevia according to preference.
• Incorporate small pieces of fruit like mashed bananas or berries into the yogurt mixture for a fruity twist.
• Fold in crushed nuts or seeds to add crunch and extra flavor.
• Try dipping bites in white chocolate or yogurt coating for variety.

Storage

Store the bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze them for up to 3 months. When freezing, separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking. These bites are best enjoyed cold; if frozen, thaw them in the fridge for a few hours before serving. Avoid reheating to maintain their texture.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

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

Toppings (Optional)

• Flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

1. Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Use a spatula or whisk to mix thoroughly until smooth and well blended, ensuring a creamy consistency that blends all flavors evenly.
2. Form and Freeze the Bites: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Use a spoon or small ice cream scooper to scoop the yogurt mixture into about six evenly sized bites. Place the tray in the freezer for 10–20 minutes, or until the bites are firm and frozen, which is crucial for maintaining their shape during dipping.
3. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil. Heat in short 15-20 second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each interval until smooth and silky. The coconut oil helps the chocolate coat and harden evenly on the bites.
4. Dip and Set: Remove the frozen bites from the freezer and dip each into the melted chocolate coating thoroughly. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top immediately after dipping for a savory-sweet contrast. Return the coated bites to the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.

Notes

• Use dairy-free yogurt and chocolate chips to make this recipe vegan.
• You can replace maple syrup with agave syrup, honey (for non-vegans), or a sugar substitute like stevia.
• Store bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months to maintain freshness.
• Use a cookie scoop for evenly shaped, uniform bite sizes.
