Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Mixture
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cookie Dough Mixture
- 1/3 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth and creamy.
- Make Cookie Dough: In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter or coconut oil, salt, and brown sugar until a crumbly dough forms.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the dough mixture ensuring even distribution.
- Line Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- Form Dough Balls: Use a spoon or cookie scoop to form small balls of the dough mixture and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Flatten Dough Balls: Gently press each dough ball with your fingers to flatten them slightly for better topping adherence.
- Top with Yogurt: Use a spoon to add a dollop of the yogurt mixture on top of each dough bite.
- Freeze: Freeze the bites for at least 2 hours or until firm to set the flavors and texture.
- Store Properly: Once frozen, remove the bites from the baking sheet and transfer them to an airtight container, storing in the freezer.
- Serve: Allow the bites to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften slightly for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Use plain or vanilla Greek yogurt depending on your sweetness preference.
- Maple syrup can be used as a vegan alternative to honey.
- For a coconut twist, opt for coconut oil instead of butter.
- Make sure the bites are fully frozen before removing to keep their shape.
- These bites are best enjoyed within one week for optimal freshness.
