Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1 cup dark chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Optional toppings: chopped nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), colorful sprinkles, or additional shredded coconut for decoration

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, your choice of honey or maple syrup, and the vanilla extract. Using a whisk or spatula, blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well combined.

    Shape the Rings: If using a silicone donut mold, set it on a flat surface. For a muffin tin, line each compartment with cupcake liners. Carefully pour the yogurt mixture into the molds, filling them about three-quarters full. With a spoon or your finger, create a hole in the center of each mold to form the classic ring shape.

      Add Coconut: Generously sprinkle the shredded coconut over the top of each yogurt-filled mold, making sure to cover the entire surface lightly for added texture and flavor.

        Freeze: Transfer the molds to the freezer and allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid and firm to the touch.

          Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Heat the mixture in the microwave in intervals of 30 seconds, stirring thoroughly between each round, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Stir in the sea salt for an extra hint of flavor.

            Dip the Rings: Once the yogurt rings are fully frozen, carefully remove them from the molds. Dip each ring halfway into the melted chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Place the chocolate-dipped rings on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

              Add Toppings: While the chocolate is still warm and glossy, sprinkle your chosen toppings – such as chopped nuts, vibrant sprinkles, or more shredded coconut – over the chocolate-covered area for a delightful crunch and added color.

                Chill Again: Return the baking sheet with the dipped rings back to the freezer for about 30 minutes, allowing the chocolate to set firmly.

                  Serve: Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the Frozen Yogurt Choco Coconut Rings from the freezer. Serve immediately and enjoy these refreshing and decadent treats!

                      Presentation Tips: Arrange the rings on a colorful platter, and consider drizzling any leftover melted chocolate over the top for an aesthetically pleasing touch. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and an extra hint of freshness.
