Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

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

1/2 cup finely chopped pecans

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Optional: Sweetened coconut flakes for topping

Instructions
 

Prep the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir until the mixture is well-blended and creamy.

    Prepare the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely smooth. Be careful not to overheat.

      Add Pecans: Remove the melted chocolate from the microwave and gently fold in the chopped pecans until they are well coated with the chocolate.

        Form the Bites: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the yogurt mixture into small bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

          Dip in Chocolate: Take each yogurt ball and dip it into the chocolate-pecan mixture, rolling it around to ensure it’s fully coated. Return the chocolate-coated bites to the baking sheet.

            Add Final Touches: If desired, sprinkle with sweetened coconut flakes before the chocolate sets.

              Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the bites freeze for at least 2-3 hours or until completely firm.

                Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, remove the bites from the baking sheet and store them in an airtight container in the freezer. Enjoy them straight from the freezer for a delightful treat!
