Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

½ cup espresso or strong brewed coffee (cooled)

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)

¼ cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

¼ cup shredded coconut (unsweetened, optional)

Pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cooled espresso, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until smooth and well-mixed.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, dark chocolate chips, and shredded coconut (if using). Mix together until the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

      Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the yogurt mixture, stirring until everything is coated and combined. The mixture should be thick but manageable.

        Transfer to Pan: Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal. Pour the mixture into the lined dish and spread it out evenly, pressing it down with a spatula or the back of a spoon to ensure it's compact.

          Freeze: Place the dish in the freezer and let the mixture freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.

            Cut into Squares: Once frozen, remove the dish from the freezer and lift the block of energy squares out using the parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board and cut into squares of your desired size.

              Store: Keep the energy squares in an airtight container in the freezer. Enjoy them straight from the freezer for a cool, energizing treat!
