Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

1/2 cup crushed fresh mint leaves (or 1 teaspoon peppermint extract)

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/3 cup chopped nuts (optional, pecans or almonds work great)

Cooking spray or parchment paper for lining the pan

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pan: Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Lightly spray with cooking spray if you are not using parchment.

    Mix the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Add Flavors: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, crushed mint leaves (or peppermint extract), and unsweetened cocoa powder until fully incorporated. If you're adding chopped nuts, fold them in as well.

        Spread Mixture: Pour the yogurt mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to ensure it is level.

          Freeze: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely frozen and firm.

            Cut into Bars: Once the mixture is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer. Lift the bars out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang, and place on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut into squares or rectangles.

              Serve or Store: Serve immediately for a delicious treat, or store the bars in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. For best results, allow them to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before enjoying.
