How to Make It
Follow these simple steps for a delectable treat!
Prepare the baking sheet
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the yogurt from sticking and make cleanup easier.
Spread the yogurt
Spread the yogurt evenly across the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the layer is as uniform as possible for even freezing.
Swirl in peanut butter
Warm the peanut butter in the microwave for about 15 seconds or until melty. Using a knife, swirl it into the yogurt for a beautiful marbled effect.
Add toppings
Top with broken gluten-free pretzels and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Make sure to distribute them evenly for balanced flavor in every bite.
Freeze the mixture
Place in the freezer until the yogurt is firm, about 3 hours. Check occasionally to ensure it’s freezing well, as freezer temperatures can vary.
Break into pieces
Once firm, break into pieces and enjoy cold! This whimsical treat is best served straight from the freezer.
How to Store It
