  • They store beautifully in the freezer, waiting like tiny frozen cheerleaders for your next snack attack.

Basically, this is your new go-to “I want dessert but also don’t want to try too hard” recipe.

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Cookie Dough:

  • 1 cup almond flour (aka the magical “no raw flour” solution)
  • 2 tbsp softened butter (not melted—this isn’t soup)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (the expensive-smelling stuff)
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips (or regular-sized, because we don’t judge)

For the Yogurt Base:

  • 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional but recommended if you like things sweet-sweet)

Yes, that’s literally it. No fancy ingredients. No running to three different grocery stores. You’re welcome.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Make the cookie dough

In a bowl, mix almond flour, softened butter, brown sugar, honey/maple syrup, vanilla, and salt. Stir until it forms a dough. Fold in chocolate chips like a civilized human.

2. Roll the dough

Use your hands or a tiny scoop (if you want to pretend you’re a pastry chef) to form small cookie dough balls. Place them on a plate or tray.

3. Freeze the dough

Pop those cute little balls into the freezer for 10–15 minutes. This helps them hold shape and not melt into the yogurt like sad chocolate chip puddles.

4. Prep the yogurt

Mix yogurt with honey. Taste it. Smile. Add more honey if your sweet tooth says so.

5. Assemble the bites

Line a mini muffin tin or tray with parchment. Spoon yogurt into each cup, add a cookie dough ball, and drizzle a little more yogurt on top if you’re feeling extra.

6. Freeze

Freeze everything for 2–3 hours until solid. Yes, the waiting is painful. No, you cannot speed it up with your hair dryer.

7. Serve

Pop them out and enjoy! Store extras in the freezer (if there are any extras).

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using melted butter. Your dough will turn into an oily, sad mess.
  • Skipping the dough freeze step. Rookie mistake. Your balls will melt instantly in the yogurt.
  • Adding too much honey to the yogurt. It becomes runny and refuses to freeze nicely.
  • Using regular flour. Don’t. Just… don’t. It’s unsafe raw and tastes like chalk anyway.
  • Not lining the tray. Unless you enjoy chiseling frozen treats out like an archaeologist.

Alternatives & Substitutions

  • No almond flour? Use oat flour. You can even blitz oats in a blender—DIY level unlocked.
  • Dairy-free? Coconut yogurt + vegan butter works beautifully.
  • Not into chocolate chips? (…really?) Try crushed Oreos, sprinkles, or mini peanut butter cups.
  • Want more protein? Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to the yogurt. Boom—buff dessert.
  • Prefer less sweetness? Skip the honey. I personally can’t relate, but you do you.

FAQs

 Is almond flour really necessary?

Pretty much. Regular flour tastes like edible drywall when raw, so stick with almond or oat.

 Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek?

Technically yes, but it won’t freeze as creamy. So unless you enjoy icy chunks, go Greek.

 Can I make these bigger?

Absolutely. Make mega bites. Make super bites. Just don’t blame me when you choke trying to eat one whole.

 Do I have to freeze the dough first?

Yes. Unless you like cookie dough streaks floating around like debris in a snow globe.

 How long do they last in the freezer?

About 1 month—if you have enough willpower to not finish them in 48 hours.

 Can kids make this?

Totally. It’s easy, safe, and fun. Just hide your portion first.

 Can I skip the chocolate chips?

You can, but I don’t know why you’d choose sadness.
