Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

• Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

• Creamy peanut butter

• Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

• Vanilla extract

• Mini chocolate chips

• Pinch of salt

Directions

1. I mix together the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until smooth and well combined.

2. I fold in the mini chocolate chips until they’re evenly distributed.

3. Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, I portion the mixture into bite-sized mounds onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or into mini silicone molds.

4. I freeze them for at least 2 hours, or until they’re firm.

5. Once frozen, I transfer the bites to an airtight container and keep them stored in the freezer for easy snacking.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 20 to 24 bites. It takes 10 minutes to prepare and about 2 hours to freeze, making it a no-bake treat I can prepare in advance.

Variations

• I sometimes use almond butter or cashew butter for a different nutty flavor.

• For a crunchier bite, I add crushed pretzels, granola, or chopped nuts to the mix.

• I’ve swirled in cocoa powder or cinnamon for extra flavor depth.

• If I want a dairy-free option, I use coconut yogurt and make sure the chocolate chips are vegan.

storage/reheating

I store these bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. When I’m ready to eat one, I let it sit at room temperature for a minute or two to soften slightly for the best texture. I don’t recommend reheating, since they’re meant to be enjoyed cold.

FAQs

What kind of Greek yogurt should I use?

I like using full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest texture, but low-fat or nonfat also works. Vanilla adds sweetness, while plain gives me more control over flavor.

Can I make this recipe without sweetener?

Yes, if I’m using vanilla Greek yogurt and enjoy a more tart flavor, I often skip the honey or maple syrup entirely.

Do these bites stay solid at room temperature?

They soften fairly quickly, so I keep them frozen and only take out what I’ll eat right away.

Can kids eat these?

Absolutely. They’re a great high-protein snack for kids, especially with mini chocolate chips. I just make sure there are no nut allergies if sharing.

What’s the best way to shape them?

I use a small cookie scoop or spoon, but silicone mini muffin molds work great too for uniform bites and easy release.

Conclusion

Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites with Chocolate Chips are one of my favorite freezer snacks—simple, delicious, and just indulgent enough to satisfy cravings without going overboard.
