Frozen Peanut Butter Yogurt Bites (Printable)

Peanut butter and Greek yogurt frozen bites, coated in dark chocolate and topped with flaky sea salt.

# What You'll Need:

→ Filling

01 - 1 cup creamy peanut butter
02 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
03 - 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
04 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Chocolate Coating

05 - 7 oz dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa), chopped
06 - 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating)

→ Topping

07 - Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

# How To Make It:

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
02 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is completely smooth and well incorporated.
03 - Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, portion heaping teaspoons of the filling onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to form small mounds. You should get approximately 24 bites.
04 - Place the baking sheet in the freezer and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are completely firm and frozen through.
05 - Near the end of the freezing time, place the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler over gently simmering water.
06 - Remove the frozen bites from the freezer. Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each bite into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Return each coated bite to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
07 - Immediately sprinkle the top of each chocolate-coated bite with flaky sea salt before the chocolate begins to set.
08 - Return the coated bites to the freezer for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chocolate shell is firm to the touch.
09 - Transfer the finished bites to an airtight container and store in the freezer for up to 1 month. Serve directly from the freezer or allow to thaw slightly for a creamier texture.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They taste like a candy bar you can feel genuinely good about eating.
  • The sweet and salty combination is wildly addictive and nearly impossible to stop eating.
  • No baking required, which means your kitchen stays cool and cleanup takes about five minutes.
02 -
  • If the peanut butter filling feels too soft to scoop neatly, chill the bowl in the refrigerator for 15 minutes and it firms right up.
  • Work in small batches when dipping because the frozen bites thaw fast and become tricky to handle once soft.
  • Store them in a single layer or separated by parchment in an airtight container or they will stick together into one giant clump.
03 -
  • Use a toothpick or wooden skewer instead of a fork for dipping because it gives you more control and leaves fewer marks on the chocolate surface.
  • The coconut oil in the chocolate is technically optional but it makes the coating noticeably thinner and more elegant so I never skip it.
