Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon peppermint extract

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

Pinch of sea salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Mix the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of honey (or maple syrup), 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract. Use a whisk or spatula to blend the mixture until it’s creamy, smooth, and fully incorporated. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or minty flavor according to your preference.

    Prepare the Baking Dish: Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving enough paper hanging over the edges to create “handles” for easy lifting later on.

      Spread the Yogurt Mixture: Pour the yogurt mixture into the prepared baking dish. Using a spatula, evenly spread the mixture to create a smooth, flat layer.

        Melt the Chocolate Coating: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Microwave the bowl for 20 seconds at a time, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and has a silky-smooth consistency. For added depth of flavor, stir in a pinch of sea salt.

          Drizzle and Spread the Chocolate: Carefully pour the melted chocolate over the yogurt layer. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to gently spread the chocolate, ensuring it covers the yogurt mix evenly.

            Freeze the Mixture: Transfer the dish to the freezer and allow it to set for approximately 4-6 hours, or until the yogurt is frozen solid.

              Cut into Wedges: Once the yogurt is fully frozen, lift it from the pan using the edges of the parchment paper. Place the frozen yogurt slab on a cutting board and slice it into wedges or squares, based on your serving preference.

                Garnish and Serve: For a delightful touch, garnish your wedges with fresh mint leaves just before serving. Enjoy immediately, or store the wedges in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks for a deliciously chilled treat.
