  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy, at room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (for extra warmth)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed (for added nutrition)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your workspace: Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper, sized to fit in your freezer with room to spare. If using refrigerated peanut butter, bring it to room temperature for easier mixing.
  2. Combine the base ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth with no peanut butter streaks. Add a teaspoon of milk or more yogurt if mixture is too thick.
  3. Fold in the chocolate chips and add-ins: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate. Add optional cinnamon, chia seeds or flaxseed, and chopped nuts; fold them evenly throughout the mixture.
  4. Portion the bites: Using a tablespoon measure or small cookie scoop, drop 1 to 1.5 tablespoon portions onto the prepared parchment paper. Space them about an inch apart and smooth the tops with the back of a spoon if desired.
  5. Freeze until firm: Place the tray on a flat surface in the freezer. Freeze the bites for 1-2 hours until completely firm to the touch, depending on your freezer and bite size.
  6. Store properly: Transfer the frozen bites to a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag. Use parchment sheets between layers to prevent sticking and seal tightly to avoid freezer burn.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy the bites straight from the freezer as a refreshing, protein-rich snack. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 seconds before eating for best texture.

Notes

  • Use peanut butter at room temperature to ensure easier mixing.
  • You can adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey or maple syrup.
  • Feel free to swap mini chocolate chips for chopped dark chocolate for richer flavor.
  • Optional add-ins like cinnamon, chia seeds, and nuts boost nutrition and flavor.
  • Store bites in an airtight container with parchment between layers to prevent sticking and freezer burn.
  • Allow bites to soften slightly at room temperature for 30 seconds before eating for optimal taste and texture.
