Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla for added flavor)

1/2 cup pure cocoa powder

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to your preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup unsalted pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for extra indulgence)

Pinch of salt

Silicone muffin cups or silicone ice cube trays for molding

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well combined. This will be the rich base for your yogurt delights.

    Add the Crunch: Once the base is ready, gently fold in the chopped pistachios and mini chocolate chips (if you choose to include them). Use a spatula to ensure that the nuts and chocolate are evenly dispersed throughout the yogurt mixture, adding a delightful texture to each bite.

      Fill the Molds: Using a spoon or a ladle, carefully fill your silicone muffin cups or ice cube trays with the yogurt mixture. Fill each mold about three-quarters full, allowing room for expansion as they freeze. Smooth the tops with a spatula or the back of a spoon for an even surface.

        Freeze: Transfer the filled molds to the freezer. Allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid. This step is essential for creating the perfect texture.

          Serve: Once frozen, gently remove the yogurt cups from the molds by stretching the silicone if necessary. You can serve them individually or arrange them beautifully on a serving platter to impress your guests.

            Garnish (Optional): For an elegant finishing touch, drizzle a bit of extra honey over the tops or sprinkle additional chopped pistachios before serving. This not only enhances the flavor but also adds a lovely visual appeal.

              Storage: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks. For optimal enjoyment, allow them to sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before diving in to achieve the best texture.
