- 1 tsp Vanilla essence
- 40 g roasted peanuts roughly chopped (⅓ cup)
For the filling

Instructions
Make the yoghurt mixture
- In a bowl, mix together the coconut yoghurt, peanut butter, and maple syrup until smooth and creamy.
Layer the bites
- Spoon a little of the yoghurt mixture into each cavity of an ice cube tray or silicone mould.
- Add a few frozen raspberries and a sprinkle of chopped peanuts.
- Top with the remaining yoghurt mixture, ensuring the raspberries are mostly covered.
- Tap the tray gently on the counter to remove any air pockets.
Freeze
- Place in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until completely solid.
Prepare the chocolate
- Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water, or microwave in short bursts, stirring between each burst.
Coat the bites
- Remove the frozen bites from the mould.
- Using two forks, quickly dip each bite into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off.
- Place onto a lined tray or plate.
Set and serve
- The chocolate should harden almost instantly thanks to the frozen centres.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month.
