Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 cup sweet cherries, pitted and finely chopped (fresh or thawed frozen cherries)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, for an added crunch)

Instructions
 

Prep the Cherries: If you're using fresh cherries, start by washing them thoroughly, then remove the pits and chop them into small pieces. For frozen cherries, place them in a bowl to thaw for a few minutes before chopping into smaller chunks.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, add the dark chocolate chips. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Allow it to cool slightly before using.

      Mix the Yogurt: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture vigorously until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.

        Combine Ingredients: Carefully fold the chopped cherries and the melted chocolate into the yogurt mixture using a spatula. Mix gently until the cherries and chocolate are evenly distributed. If you choose to include nuts for crunch, fold them in at this stage as well.

          Scoop and Freeze: Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, portion out the mixture into silicone molds or mini muffin tins. Fill each mold evenly but remember to leave a little space at the top, as the yogurt will expand slightly while freezing.

            Freeze and Set: Place the filled molds into the freezer, allowing them to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

              Serve: Once the bites are frozen, gently remove them from the molds. For storage, place the bliss bites in an airtight container and keep them in the freezer for a quick and healthy snack option.

                Enjoy: Treat yourself to one (or more!) of these delicious Choco-Cherry Bliss Bites whenever you want a refreshing and indulgent snack, perfect for warm days or whenever you crave a sweet treat!
