Description

A deliciously indulgent dessert that combines rich chocolate and vibrant orange flavors, packed with protein to satisfy your cravings guilt-free.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Greek Yogurt
  • 4 oz Dark Chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder
  • 3 tablespoons Honey or Maple Syrup
  • 1 tablespoon Orange Zest
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Chocolate: Start by chopping the dark chocolate into small pieces. Melt it gently in a microwave-safe bowl, pausing to stir every 30 seconds until it’s completely smooth.
  2. Mix the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine your Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, honey (or maple syrup), orange zest, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Chocolate and Yogurt Mixture: Once your chocolate is melted and slightly cooled, pour it into the yogurt mixture. Fold them together gently.
  4. Taste Test!: Taste your mixture before you pour it into the pots. Adjust the sweetness if needed.
  5. Portion It Out: Spoon the chocolate mixture into small serving dishes or ramekins, aiming for about three-quarters full.
  6. Chill: Cover and refrigerate your pots for at least 120 minutes.

Notes

These pots can be made up to a few days in advance. They freeze well for up to a month; just thaw in the fridge before serving.
