Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup whole milk Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter
  • 2-3 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • chopped peanuts for topping, optional
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and maple syrup to a bowl. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
  • Scoop 1 tablespoon of the mixture into each cup of a silicone mini muffin pan (I love using this tablespoon-sized ice cream scoop!). Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
  • Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then continue heating in 10-second increments until smooth and fully melted.
  • Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate over each yogurt bite and spread evenly. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts if desired.
  • Freeze for 2 to 3 hours, or until completely firm. Remove from the silicone pan and serve immediately or transfer to a freezer-safe container for storage.

Notes

  • It's important to use a silicone mini muffin pan for the easiest removal. The bites pop out SO much more easily than they would from a metal pan.
  • Make sure your peanut butter is well stirred before measuring. Natural peanut butter can separate, and using the oily top portion may affect the consistency.
  • Taste the yogurt mixture before portioning it into the pan. Depending on the sweetness of your peanut butter and personal preference, you may want to add a little extra maple syrup.
  • Allow the bites to freeze completely before removing them from the pan. This helps them hold their shape and prevents sticking.
