1 cup strained Greek yogurt or full-fat coconut yogurt
02 -
3 tablespoons smooth cashew or almond butter
03 -
3-4 tablespoons pure maple syrup
04 -
3 tablespoons protein powder (skip if you want)
05 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Chocolate Coating
08 -

09 -
1/2 tablespoon unrefined coconut oil
# Instructions:
01 -
Put yogurt, nut butter, maple syrup, protein powder if using, sea salt, and vanilla in a big bowl. Stir until it's all mixed up and smooth. Give it a taste and add more sweetness if you want.
02 -
Spoon your mixture into molds, leaving about a third empty at the top of each space.
03 -
Toss chocolate and coconut oil together in a small bowl. Melt it slowly using a double-boiler setup or pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, making sure to stir between zaps until it's all runny.
04 -
Drizzle melted chocolate on top of each yogurt-filled section until you've used up the remaining space in each mold.
05 -
Stick them in the freezer for 3-4 hours, then pop them out. Let them sit for a minute or two before eating so they're creamier.
# Notes:
01 -
They'll keep in your freezer for up to two months in a sealed container.
02 -
You need thick, strained yogurt or the treats won't set up right.
03 -
Feel free to swap out cacao nibs with whatever mix-ins you fancy.
