Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla for your preference)

1/4 cup brewed coffee (make sure it's cooled)

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

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (for a delicious melt-in-your-mouth experience)

Optional: chopped nuts (such as walnuts or almonds) or crushed espresso beans for an added texture and flavor dimension

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cooled brewed coffee, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Using a whisk or spatula, mix thoroughly until the blend is smooth and uniformly combined.

    Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the mini chocolate chips into the yogurt mixture using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly spread throughout the mix without over-mixing.

      Spoon into Molds: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use silicone molds to prevent sticking. Employ a spoon or ice cream scoop to drop generous dollops of the yogurt mixture onto the lined sheet, shaping them into round discs approximately 2 inches in diameter. Be sure to leave a bit of space between each disc for easy removal after freezing.

        Optional Toppings: If you like, generously sprinkle chopped nuts or a few crushed espresso beans over each yogurt disc, adding a delightful crunch and an extra punch of flavor.

          Freeze: Place the prepared baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the discs for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solidified.

            Serve: Once the discs are frozen, use a spatula to gently lift them off the parchment paper or out of the molds. You can serve them immediately for a refreshing treat or transfer them to an airtight container for storage in the freezer, where they will keep for up to 2 weeks.

              Enjoy: Relish your Frozen Yogurt Mocha Chip Discs as a healthy indulgent snack or a guilt-free dessert that satisfies your chocolate cravings!
