Ingredients
  

1 cup vanilla yogurt (choose either Greek or regular for your preferred texture)

1/2 cup granola (your favorite variety)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (or more for extra chocolatey goodness)

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for desired sweetness)

1/2 cup crushed cookies (e.g., Oreos or classic chocolate chip cookies)

A pinch of sea salt (to enhance flavors)

2 tablespoons sliced almonds or chopped walnuts (optional for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the vanilla yogurt and pure vanilla extract. If you prefer extra sweetness, add the honey or maple syrup. Stir the mixture thoroughly until it becomes well-blended and silky smooth.

    Mix in the Crunch: Gently fold in the granola, mini chocolate chips, and crushed cookies to the yogurt mixture. Add a pinch of sea salt to elevate the flavors. If you’re including nuts for texture, incorporate them at this stage. Mix until all ingredients are evenly dispersed throughout the yogurt.

      Shape the Coins: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out the yogurt mixture and drop it onto the lined baking sheet, forming round shapes about 2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Give them a gentle pat to ensure they hold their shape.

        Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and let the yogurt coins freeze for a minimum of 2-3 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Serve & Enjoy: Once the coins are firmly frozen, you can carefully transfer them to a zip-lock bag for easy storage. These delightful yogurt coins can be served directly from the freezer as a quick, refreshing snack or dessert that remains firm and won't melt quickly!
