Ingredients
  

1½ cups plain Greek yogurt

½ cup canned coconut milk (for extra creaminess)

1 cup brewed coffee (cooled completely)

⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

¼ cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your preferred sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Optional: Dark chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Coffee: Start by brewing your coffee. Allow it to come to room temperature or place it in the fridge to cool completely. This step can be done in advance for quicker preparation.

    Mix the Base: In a medium mixing bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt, canned coconut milk, cooled coffee, unsweetened cocoa powder, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Use a whisk to blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Make sure to break down any clumps of cocoa powder for a silky texture.

      Incorporate Coconut: Gently fold in the shredded coconut. Use a spatula to mix only until the coconut is evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture; avoid over-mixing to maintain texture.

        Fill the Molds: Carefully pour the yogurt mixture into ice cube trays or silicone molds, filling each compartment evenly. Tap the trays against the counter gently to help release any trapped air bubbles, ensuring an even fill.

          Freeze: Transfer the filled molds to the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or until they are completely solid.

            Unmold and Serve: Once frozen, remove the cubes from the molds. If necessary, briefly dip the bottom of the molds in warm water to help release the cubes without breakage.

              Garnish (Optional): For an extra indulgent touch, sprinkle dark chocolate shavings on top of each cube just before serving.

                Enjoy: These delightful mocha cubes can be savored as a refreshing snack, blended into smoothies, or served in a bowl for a chilled treat on their own.
