Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to your desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup crushed hazelnuts (for topping)

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, chocolate hazelnut spread, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth and well incorporated.

    Fill the Molds: Spoon the yogurt mixture into silicone coin-shaped molds or mini muffin tins, filling each section about three-quarters full. If silicone molds are unavailable, you can use a parchment-lined baking sheet to pour the mixture into small dollops.

      Add the Toppings: Generously sprinkle the crushed hazelnuts over each yogurt coin. Gently press the nuts down into the mixture to ensure they adhere well.

        Freeze the Coins: Place your filled molds or baking sheet into the freezer. Allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4-6 hours, or until they are solid and firm to the touch.

          Unmold and Serve: Once frozen, carefully release the yogurt coins from the molds. If you opted for a baking sheet, you may need to let them sit at room temperature for about a minute to soften slightly, making removal easier.

            Storage Instructions: Store any leftover frozen yogurt coins in an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag. They can be kept in the freezer for up to two weeks.

              Enjoy: These delectable yogurt coins make for a refreshing snack or a light dessert—perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth anytime!
