Ingredients
- 2 cups low-fat yogurt
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup chopped Snickers bars
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup granola
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, carefully measure out 2 cups of low-fat yogurt, ensuring the yogurt is at a cool room temperature for optimal mixing consistency.
- Add 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter to the yogurt, using a whisk or spatula to blend thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform in color and texture.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey into the yogurt-peanut butter mixture, stirring gently to incorporate and enhance the sweetness of the dessert.
- Prepare the Snickers bars by finely chopping them into small, uniform pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the dessert.
- Fold the chopped Snickers bar pieces into the yogurt mixture, being careful not to overmix and maintaining the integrity of the chocolate and caramel bits.
- Transfer the mixture into individual serving dishes or a single large serving bowl, creating an even surface.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of granola evenly over the top of the dessert, providing a crunchy textural contrast to the creamy base.
- Refrigerate the dessert for at least 15-20 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set slightly.
- When ready to serve, remove from refrigerator and garnish with additional chopped Snickers pieces or a light drizzle of honey if desired.
Tips

- Chopping Technique: When cutting Snickers bars, use a sharp knife and make uniform, small pieces to distribute flavor evenly.
- Gentle Folding: When incorporating Snickers pieces, fold gently to maintain the chocolate and caramel's integrity.
- Chill for Success: Refrigerating allows flavors to meld and gives the dessert a perfect, slightly firmer consistency.
