Ingredients

Scale

Frozen Yogurt Mixture

  • 1 cup non-dairy yogurt, plain and unsweetened
  • 2 tablespoons protein powder (optional)
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter or any nut/seed butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Chocolate Coating

  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare Frozen Yogurt Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the non-dairy yogurt, protein powder (if using), cashew butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup or honey. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Then fold in the mini chocolate chips carefully.
  2. Scoop the Bites: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a medium-large cookie scoop or spoon, portion out dollops of the frozen yogurt mixture onto the baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to prevent sticking during freezing.
  3. Freeze Until Solid: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and chill the yogurt bites for at least 1 hour, or until they are completely solid and firm to the touch.
  4. Melt Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips together with the coconut oil until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Stir frequently to ensure even melting and to avoid burning.
  5. Dip Bites in Chocolate: Retrieve the frozen yogurt bites from the freezer. Individually dip each bite into the melted chocolate, fully coating it. Use a fork or spoon to lift them out and let any excess chocolate drip off, then place the coated bites back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Final Freeze: Return the chocolate-coated yogurt bites to the freezer and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens firmly. Store them in the freezer until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Use any nut or seed butter you prefer if cashew butter is unavailable.
  • Maple syrup and honey are interchangeable as natural sweeteners; use vegan honey alternatives for a vegan diet.
  • For a dairy-free option, ensure the chocolate chips are dairy-free.
  • Protein powder is optional and can be omitted or substituted with collagen or left out entirely.
  • Store the frozen yogurt bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
  • Let bite thaw slightly at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating for best texture.
