Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for flavoring)

1/2 cup almond butter (for creaminess)

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (or dairy-free chips for a vegan option)

1/4 cup crushed almonds (for topping and crunch)

Pinch of sea salt (to enhance flavors)

Optional: a dash of cinnamon or cocoa powder (for added warmth and depth)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Using a whisk or spatula, mix the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

    Add Flavor: If desired, sprinkle in a dash of ground cinnamon or cocoa powder. Whisk again until these flavorful additions are completely blended into the yogurt mixture.

      Spoon and Shape: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy removal. Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Gently flatten each dollop with the back of a spoon to form coin-shaped mounds, roughly 1-inch thick.

        Prepare the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the almond butter and dark chocolate chips. Melt them together in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. Be cautious not to overheat to prevent the chocolate from seizing.

          Drizzle and Top: Once the yogurt coins are formed, take the melted chocolate almond mixture and drizzle it generously over the top of each yogurt coin. For an extra layer of crunch, sprinkle crushed almonds on top of the chocolate drizzle.

            Freeze Until Set: Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the freezer. Allow the coins to freeze for at least 2 to 3 hours or until they are firm and completely set.

              Serve and Enjoy: After freezing, gently peel the coins off the parchment paper. You can enjoy them immediately as a delightful snack, or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for a refreshing treat anytime!

                Prep Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 3 hours 15 minutes (including freezing) | Servings: 12-15 coins

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the yogurt coins on a decorative platter and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color. They make for a great dessert option at parties!
