Ingredients
  

2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt (or any flavor you prefer)

1 cup dark chocolate chips

1 cup mini pretzels

1/2 cup crushed nuts (such as almonds or pecans)

1/4 cup mini marshmallows (optional)

2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional, for sweetness)

A pinch of sea salt (for topping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and maple syrup/honey (if using). Stir well until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated. Adjust sweetness according to your taste.

      Add the Mix-ins:

        - Gently fold in the mini pretzels, crushed nuts, and mini marshmallows (if using) into the yogurt mixture. Ensure that the pretzels and nuts are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt.

          Melt the Chocolate:

            - In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until fully melted and smooth.

              Combine Yogurt and Chocolate:

                - Using a spoon, scoop out a portion of the yogurt mixture and drizzle or dip it into the bowl of melted chocolate until it is evenly coated. You can either fully coat them or leave parts exposed, according to your preference.

                  Shape the Clusters:

                    - On a parchment-lined baking sheet, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate-coated yogurt mixture. Space them out slightly, as they will spread a little as you form the clusters.

                      Sprinkle with Sea Salt:

                        - For an extra pop of flavor, lightly sprinkle sea salt on top of each cluster before they go into the freezer.

                          Freeze:

                            - Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the clusters freeze for at least 2 hours or until they are solid.

                              Serve:

                                - Once frozen, remove the clusters from the baking sheet. You can store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month. Enjoy your Frozen Yogurt Chocolate Pretzel Clusters straight from the freezer!
