Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon brewed espresso or strong coffee (cooled)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

1/4 cup crushed salted peanuts (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, honey (or maple syrup), brewed espresso, and vanilla extract. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and well-combined.

    Incorporate the Peanut Butter: Add the peanut butter to the yogurt mixture. With a spatula or spoon, stir until the peanut butter is completely incorporated. If you're aiming for a bit of texture, gently fold in the mini chocolate chips at this point.

      Shape the Bites: Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and drop it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If desired, use your hands to gently roll each spoonful into bite-sized balls.

        Freeze the Bites: Place the baking sheet carefully in the freezer and allow the bites to freeze for a minimum of 2-3 hours, or until they are solid and firm to the touch.

          Garnish and Serve: Once the bites are fully frozen, remove them from the baking sheet. Roll each bite in the crushed salted peanuts to add a delightful crunch. Enjoy them immediately or transfer them to an airtight container for storage. These treats can be kept in the freezer for up to two weeks.

            Optional Toppings: For an additional indulgent touch, consider drizzling melted dark chocolate over the top of each bite or sprinkling with flaked sea salt before serving. This enhances both the visual appeal and the flavor profile of your treats.
