Ingredients for Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Buster Bars
healthy Yogurt buster bars recipe
- 2 1/2 cups vegan vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons agave
- salted roasted peanuts
- optional: 3/4 cup vegan protein powder – if wanting more protein
Chocolate Coating
- 1 1/2 cups dairy-free milk chocolate chips, can also use semi-sweet
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, canola oil or vegetable oil
Instructions How to Make Homemade Easy Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Buster Bars
- Prepare a large baking sheet and cover with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together the agave, peanut butter and the Greek yogurt very gently together. Taste the mixture and if you want it sweeter, you can add a little more agave.
- Use a large spoon or small measuring cup and make mounds of the popsicle mixture. Add popsicle sticks and salted peanuts to the tops of the yogurt mounds.
- Freeze pop for 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Once the yogurt pops are frozen, melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl with peanut butter in 30 second increments, stirring in between, repeating until the chocolate and peanut butter has melted. Add the oil to the mixture and mix together well.
- Dip the bars one a a time into the melted chocolate. I slanted the popsicles into the bowl and just turned them over to coat the entire popsicle and it worked well.
- Add some salted roasted peanuts on top if desired.
- Place each pop back onto the baking sheet and then transfer to the freezer for 15 – 20 minutes for the chocolate to set up.
- Once the yogurt buster bars are set up, enjoy! Place leftovers in an airtight container or ziplock freezer bag in the freezer.

- Mint Chocolate: Add a few drops of peppermint extract to the chocolate coating for a refreshing minty twist that pairs perfectly with the peanut butter.
- Caramel Swirl: Drizzle some vegan caramel sauce or vegan fudge sauce into the yogurt mixture before freezing to create delicious caramel swirls or fudge swirls throughout the bars.
