Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Shape Coins: Using a spoon or spatula, scoop out small portions of the yogurt mixture and shape them into coins approximately 1 inch thick on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Initial Freezing: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the coins for at least 2 hours until they become solid.
- Melt Chocolate: While the coins freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave, heating in short intervals and stirring between each until fully smooth.
- Coat and Sprinkle: Remove the frozen yogurt coins from the freezer, drizzle the melted chocolate over the coins, then immediately sprinkle chopped almonds on top to adhere.
- Final Freeze: Return the chocolate-coated coins to the freezer for an additional 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set firmly before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the yogurt mixture is smooth for easy shaping.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- You can substitute the almonds with other nuts or seeds as preferred.
- Dark chocolate chips can be replaced with semi-sweet chocolate if desired.
- Store finished coins in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
