Irresistible Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites

Looking for a sweet treat that’s both nourishing and indulgent? These Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites combine the rich flavor of peanut butter with creamy Greek yogurt and a crisp chocolate shell to create the perfect yogurt dessert.

With simple ingredients and no baking required, they’re the perfect make-ahead treat for any time of year.

What Are Peanut Butter Yogurt Bites?

Peanut butter yogurt bites are creamy, frozen (or not) treats made with a simple blend of Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and a sweetener of your choice, then dipped in melted chocolate for a delicious finish.

These peanut butter frozen yogurt bites mimic the flavor of a peanut butter cup, but with added protein and fewer ingredients.

Does it taste just like a peanut butter cup? No, but it is amazing on its own!

The yogurt mixture is scooped onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, frozen, and then coated in melted chocolate chips and coconut oil.

The result? A cold, creamy center surrounded by a rich chocolate shell—a sweet treat perfect for dessert or a midday snack.

Why Use Greek Yogurt in Frozen Treats?

Greek yogurt adds creaminess, tang, and protein to these yogurt bites. It’s thicker than traditional yogurt, which means it holds its shape better when frozen. Greek yogurt for this recipe should be plain and full-fat for the richest texture and best flavor.

If you prefer a dairy-free version, a thick coconut yogurt or almond-based yogurt works well too.

How to Make Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites

To make these peanut butter greek yogurt bites, start by combining creamy peanut butter, plain Greek yogurt, a splash of vanilla extract, and a low-glycemic sweetener such as monk fruit. Stir the yogurt mixture until smooth and thick.

Scoop the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet using a mini cookie scoop or spoon. Freeze until firm, then dip each yogurt bite in melted chocolate mixed with coconut oil. You can drizzle the melted chocolate if dipping feels too fussy, or thin the chocolate a bit more for easier coating.

A little flaky sea salt sprinkled on top right after dipping adds a gourmet touch and balances the sweetness beautifully.

Can I Make Dairy-Free Peanut Butter Yogurt Bites?

Absolutely. These yogurt bites are easy to adapt into a dairy-free dessert by swapping the Greek yogurt for a dairy-free alternative like coconut yogurt or almond milk yogurt. Look for thick, unsweetened options to ensure the bites hold their shape after freezing.

You’ll also want to make sure the chocolate chips are dairy-free and check that your coconut oil is unrefined if you want a subtle coconut flavor. The result is a delicious dairy-free treat with all the creamy peanut butter flavor and chocolatey goodness of the original.

What Sweeteners Work Best for This Recipe?

For this recipe, I use a monk fruit and erythritol blend, which adds just the right amount of sweetness without any added sugar. You could also use maple syrup or honey if you’re not concerned about carbs. Maple syrup works especially well with peanut butter and adds a warm, rich depth of flavor.

If you’re using a powdered sweetener like a stevia blend, be sure to taste and adjust. The sweetness level is personal, and different sweeteners can vary in strength.

Tips to Melt the Chocolate Perfectly

Melted chocolate is key to getting that smooth, rich coating. Use chocolate chips and coconut oil together to make the coating easy to work with. You can melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl using 15-30 second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted.

Don’t overheat—the chocolate can burn quickly. You can also use a double boiler if you prefer more control over the heat.

To coat the bites, dip each yogurt bite into the melted chocolate and place it back onto the parchment. Work quickly—especially if your bites are well-frozen—because the chocolate will start to harden almost instantly.

Should I Use Milk Chocolate or Dark Chocolate Chips?

This really comes down to personal preference. For a richer, more intense flavor, dark chocolate chips are ideal. They pair beautifully with the tang of Greek yogurt and the nutty depth of peanut butter. If you prefer a creamier, sweeter flavor profile, milk chocolate or sugar-free milk chocolate chips will work just fine.

If you're a fan of peanut butter cups, dark chocolate with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt is a perfect nod to that classic candy.

How to Store Yogurt Bites

Once dipped in chocolate, these frozen yogurt bites can be placed in a container in the freezer for long-term storage. To keep them from sticking together, you can layer them with parchment paper. They will stay fresh in the freezer for up to two months.

For the best texture, I recommend storing them in the fridge once the chocolate has set. This keeps them soft and creamy, with just the right amount of chill. If you prefer a firmer texture, enjoy the yogurt bites from the freezer—just give them a few minutes at room temperature before eating.

Variations to Try: Almond Butter, Protein Powder, and More

Once you’ve mastered the basic recipe, there are so many ways to customize it. Try using almond butter or cashew butter in place of peanut butter for a different nutty flavor. If you’re looking for an extra protein boost, mix in your favorite protein powder directly into the yogurt mixture.

For a nut-free version, sunflower butter or seed butter works great.

You can also add crushed nuts, chopped peanuts, or a layer of chocolate on the bottom before scooping the yogurt mixture onto the tray.

Want a little crunch? Sprinkle with chopped peanuts or drizzle the melted chocolate on top in a zigzag pattern for a bakery-style finish.

Serving Ideas for Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Cups

These yogurt bites make a great snack straight from the fridge, but you can also serve them in other creative ways:

• Mini Muffin Cups: Use a mini muffin tin lined with silicone liners for perfectly shaped frozen cups. Just fill, freeze, and drizzle with chocolate.
• Layered Parfaits: Break the bites into chunks and layer with whipped cream or berries for a high-protein, low-sugar dessert parfait.
• After-School Snack: These are kid-approved and easy to make ahead for busy weekdays.
