Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (natural or creamy)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- Mix the base ingredients: In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until you have a smooth, creamy mixture with no lumps. The consistency should be thick enough to hold shape when scooped.
- Add optional mix-ins: If you want to include mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts, fold them gently into the yogurt mixture to distribute evenly without breaking the texture.
- Portion into bite-sized dollops: Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to form bite-sized dollops onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or silicone mat. Keep them spaced apart to prevent sticking as they freeze.
- Freeze until solid: Place the tray in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until the bites have hardened completely. This ensures they hold their shape and are easy to pop out for snacking.
- Store and enjoy: Transfer the frozen bites into an airtight container or zip-top bag and keep them in the freezer to maintain freshness. Grab a few whenever you want a cool, satisfying treat!
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
- Chill your mixing bowl before starting to keep mixture cold and help set faster.
- Line your tray with parchment paper or silicone mat to prevent bites from sticking.
- Freeze bites completely before transferring to storage containers to maintain shape and avoid sticking.
- Use a small spoon or mini ice cream scoop for uniform bite sizes and portion control.
