These sweet vegan Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bites are the perfect dessert bite. Made with unsweetened coconut milk yogurt mixed with peanut butter and sweetener then covered in melted dark chocolate, what's not to love?
These vegan yogurt bites have a peanut butter center and a crunchy chocolate coating. Since unsweetened vegan yogurt is used you can control how much sweetener goes into these.
The inspiration for these vegan Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bites came from my Chocolate and Peanut Butter Swirl Dessert Dip. It is so good that I ate it by the spoonful for breakfast one day.
They are a healthy dessert recipe that will satisfy your sweet tooth. They have the perfect balance of flavors.

- They're the perfect treat for hot summer days. The whole family will love them.
🧾 Ingredients
- Vegan yogurt: I used unsweetened coconut yogurt because I like to control the amount of sweetener. You could also use vegan plain Greek yogurt, vegan vanilla yogurt, or your favorite yogurt.
- Peanut butter: I used all-natural peanut butter. You could also use shelf-stable peanut butter.
- Maple syrup: Adds sweetness. You could also use agave syrup or another liquid sweetener.
- Vanilla extract: Enhances the flavors.
- Salt: Enhances the sweetness. I like to use sea salt.
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate baking chunks: For the hard chocolate shell.
- Coconut oil: Makes the chocolate smooth and silky. You could leave it out.

🔪 Instructions
Step 1: Add vegan yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to a large bowl.
Step 2: Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Pour the peanut butter mixture into an ice cube tray or silicone molds. Freeze until solid.
Step 4: Place chocolate in a heat-proof bowl over a saucepan with a couple of inches of water. (If you have a double boiler, use that.)
Step 5: Melt chocolate chips on medium heat until all the lumps are gone.
Step 6: With a fork, dip each frozen peanut butter bite into the melted chocolate.
Step 7: Place each yogurt bite on parchment paper. Place in an airtight container and freeze.
💭 Tips
- When melting the chocolate, watch over it. Do not heat it too long or let water touch it - both will cause it to seize up.
- You can microwave the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl at 30-second intervals instead of heating it on the stove. It can also seize up in the microwave if you heat it too long.
- No fancy equipment is needed (like silicone molds), instead you can use an ice cube tray.
- Make sure the peanut butter bites are completely frozen before dipping them into the melted chocolate.
- A fork works well to dip the yogurt bites into the chocolate so that the excess chocolate will drip off into the bowl.

Dianne says
Just substituted “0” fat Greek yogurt and used honey roasted peanut butter freshly ground with the maple syrup. Used semi sweet chocolate melted transferring the chocolate by the spoonful over the cluster from one bowl to another and dusted the clusters with ground peanuts. Also did cut banana bites in chocolate with dusting of peanuts for a banana split tasty bite!
SHARYN CROWNOVER says
Can I use olive oil in place of coconut oil?
Willow Moon says
Yes, or you could leave it out altogether.
Britton Petersen says
Could you use plain Greek yogurt?
Willow Moon says
Yes, that would work.
Bekki says
Could you explain the peanut butter is it 2 1/4 cup or 2 1/4cup, lol I'm confused
Willow Moon says
Hi Bekki, it is 1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons, so 6 tablespoons of peanut butter total.
