Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (e.g., Nutella)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup crushed hazelnuts (for topping)

A pinch of sea salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (for dipping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chocolate hazelnut spread, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

    Add a Dash of Salt: Incorporate a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavors, mixing it in thoroughly.

      Form the Coins: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a round cookie cutter (or just a tablespoon), scoop out the yogurt mixture and drop each portion onto the lined baking sheet, creating coins about 1/2 inch thick. Make sure to leave a bit of space between each coin.

        Freeze the Coins: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the coins to freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

          Prepare the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely smooth and melted.

            Dip the Coins: Once the yogurt coins are fully frozen, remove them from the freezer. Dip each coin into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Use a fork to lift it out, allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.

              Top with Hazelnuts: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed hazelnuts on top of each coin for added texture and flavor.

                Final Freeze: Place the dipped coins back onto the parchment paper and return them to the freezer for an additional 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, the Frozen Yogurt Chocolate Hazelnut Coins are ready to be served! Enjoy them as a refreshing dessert or snack.
