The image shows round truffle-like balls with three visible layers: the outer layer is smooth and light tan with a creamy texture, covered with dark brown chocolate chips scattered and partially melted on the surface, and thin dark chocolate drizzles swirling over the top. The truffles rest on a white plate set against a white marbled textured surface. The focus is on the closest truffle, showing a small bite taken out of it, revealing a dense interior with embedded chocolate chips. The background holds more similar truffles blurred softly.

Ingredients

1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, creamy peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt until smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Fold in the mini chocolate chips gently, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper. Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the paper.
Step 4: Place the tray in the freezer and let the bites freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid.
Step 5: Once frozen, transfer the bites into an airtight container and keep them stored in the freezer until ready to enjoy.

Tips & Variations

For a nuttier flavor, try using crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
Substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a unique twist.
Use dark chocolate chips or chopped nuts to vary texture and taste.
If you prefer a firmer bite, add a tablespoon of chia seeds or oats to the mixture before freezing.

Storage

Store the bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. To enjoy, simply remove a few bites and let them thaw for 5 minutes at room temperature or eat straight from the freezer for a cold, refreshing snack.

How to Serve

A close-up view of five round cookie dough balls placed on a white plate with a white marbled texture underneath. Each dough ball has a smooth, light beige color with a creamy texture, generously studded with dark brown chocolate chips on the surface. Around the dough balls, there are dark chocolate drizzles that swirl over and between the chips, creating a slightly messy but tasty look. One dough ball in the front has a small bite taken out of it, showing a soft interior with chocolate chips inside. The soft lighting highlights the creamy and rich texture of the dough and chocolate pieces, making the treats look fresh and delicious. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
