Ingredients
  

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Fresh berries or nuts for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8x8 inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, allowing for easy removal of the brownies once baked.

    Make the Brownie Batter: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cocoa powder and almond flour. Add in the maple syrup (or honey), melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir vigorously until you form a smooth and thick batter, ensuring there are no lumps.

      Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly across the bottom of the pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs attached.

        Cool the Brownies: Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Carefully lift them from the pan using the edges of the parchment paper and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

          Cut into Bites: When the brownies have cooled completely, use a sharp knife to cut them into small squares or bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch each.

            Prepare the Yogurt Layer: In a separate mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt. If desired, incorporate the mini chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture. Feel free to sweeten the yogurt with additional maple syrup or vanilla extract to your preference.

              Assemble the Bites: Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, place a generous dollop of the yogurt mixture on top of each brownie bite. If you like, sprinkle fresh berries or chopped nuts over the yogurt for added color and flavor.

                Freeze the Brownie Bites: Arrange the assembled brownie bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until the yogurt layer is solid and firm.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, transfer the brownie bites to an airtight container and store them in the freezer. They make for a delightful quick dessert or refreshing snack whenever you crave something sweet!
