- 1/2 cup powdered peanut butter
- 2 tbsp. natural peanut butter
- 1 tbsp. honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 2 tsp. coconut oil
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, sea salt
Directions:
- In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, peanut butter powder, peanut butter, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Tips and Tricks:

- Experiment with different toppings like crushed pretzels, toasted coconut, or dried fruit for variety.
- Separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
