Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or coconut-flavored)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (or dairy-free chocolate chips)

1 tablespoon coconut oil

A pinch of sea salt

Optional: chopped nuts or seeds for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth and creamy.

    Add Coconut: Gently fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture.

      Form Yogurt Rounds: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop tablespoons of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, flattening each dollop into rounds about 1/2 inch thick. Leave some space between each round.

        Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the yogurt rounds freeze for about 2 hours or until completely solid.

          Melt the Chocolate: While the yogurt rounds are freezing, set up a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl. If using a microwave, heat the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.

            Coat Yogurt Rounds: Once the yogurt rounds are firm, remove them from the freezer. Dip each round into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before returning them to the baking sheet.

              Add Toppings (optional): While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle any desired toppings like chopped nuts or seeds on top of each round.

                Final Freeze: Return the chocolate-coated yogurt rounds to the freezer for an additional 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.

                  Serve: Enjoy these frozen chocolate coconut yogurt rounds as a refreshing dessert or snack straight from the freezer. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month.
