Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 cup finely chopped pecans

1 cup dark chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

Pinch of sea salt

Optional: 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon for added flavor

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon (if using). Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and smooth.

    Add Pecans: Gently fold in the finely chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture.

      Mold the Bites: Line a mini muffin tin with paper or silicone liners. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, fill each liner with the yogurt and pecan mixture, pressing down slightly to ensure they hold their shape.

        Freeze the Bites: Place the muffin tin in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until the yogurt bites are completely frozen.

          Melt Chocolate: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Stir continuously until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

            Coat the Bites: Once the yogurt bites are frozen solid, carefully remove them from the muffin tin. Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, making sure it's fully coated, and place them back on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

              Chill Again: Return the chocolate-coated bites to the freezer for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has set.

                Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, your Frozen Yogurt Chocolate Pecan Bites are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.
