• 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, mix Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup until smooth and well combined.
2. Step 2: Spoon the mixture into silicone molds or an ice cube tray, pressing gently to fill each cavity evenly.
3. Step 3: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in short 15-20 second bursts, stirring until smooth.
4. Step 4: Freeze the yogurt mixture for about an hour until firm, then carefully remove the bites from the molds.
5. Step 5: Dip each frozen bite into the melted chocolate, coating completely, then return them to the freezer for another 30 minutes to harden the chocolate shell.

Tips & Variations

• Use silicone molds designed for easy removal to prevent breaks when popping out the frozen bites.
• Swap maple syrup for honey or agave if preferred for natural sweetness.
• Try adding a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate coating for a gourmet touch.
• For a nut-free version, replace peanut butter varieties with sunflower seed butter and use allergy-friendly chocolate chips.

FAQs

Can I use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt?

Yes, you can substitute with low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt, but the texture may be slightly less creamy and the bites might freeze a bit harder.

What if I don’t have powdered peanut butter?

Regular peanut butter can be used instead, but since it’s oilier, reduce or omit the creamy peanut butter in the recipe to maintain the right consistency.
