Snickers Frozen Yogurt Bites

 

These Snickers Frozen Yogurt Bites are one of those recipes I keep coming back to because they truly deliver on both flavor and texture.

Made with creamy Greek yogurt, peanut butter, crunchy peanuts, and a dark chocolate coating, they have all the familiar elements of a classic Snickers bar but with less added sugar and more protein.

They’re easy to prep ahead, keep well in the freezer, and make a perfect sweet treat when you want something cold, chocolatey, and satisfying without needing to bake. Optional protein powder gives them an extra boost, but even without it, they’re a balanced dessert or snack that feels a little special.

Snickers Frozen Yogurt Bites

 

Makes 8 bites

Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups plain greek yogurt*

  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

  • ⅓ cup roasted and salted peanuts, chopped

  • 1-2 tbsps maple syrup 

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (to thin out the melted chocolate)

  • Optional: 2+ scoops of protein powder

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, add greek yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and optional protein powder. Mix until thoroughly combined.

  2. Add ¼ cup chopped peanuts and combine (remaining will be used for topping)

  3. Scoop ¼ cup servings of the greek yogurt mixture and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Use a butter knife to smooth out the bites and form round disks. 

  4. Place the greek yogurt bites in the freezer for at least 2 hours. 

  5. Add dark chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small bowl and microwave in 30 second increments (stirring in between) until chocolate is melted. 

  6. Remove the greek yogurt bites from the freezer. Using a large spoon or two smaller spoons/forks, pick up one greek yogurt bite and dip one side into the dark chocolate. Flip and dip the other side. Use a spoon to pour chocolate on any uncovered spots and spread out the chocolate as needed

  7. Before moving on to the next greek yogurt bite, sprinkle the top of the greek yogurt bite with chopped peanuts (the chocolate will start to freeze so you want to add the peanuts while the chocolate is still melted.)

  8. Place each greek yogurt bite back onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Once all bites are done, return them to the freezer and freeze for at least one hour before serving. 

You can enjoy these straight from the freezer, but for the best texture, let sit for about 5-10 minutes before serving.

*You can use whatever Greek yogurt fat content you prefer and that meets your health goals. Higher fat greek yogurts will yield a creamier yogurt bite, but will be higher in saturated fats and calories. A lower fat content is recommended if you need to limit your saturated fat intake.
