Ingredients 

  • 1 cup whole milk plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup creamy cashew butter
  • 1 –2 tablespoons honey optional
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 1 –2 pumps crème de menthe syrup to taste (start with less and add more based on preference), or 1/2-1 tsp extract
  • Large pinch of salt
  • 12 ounces dark chocolate melted (60–70% recommended)
  • Flaky sea salt optional

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl combine Greek yogurt, cashew butter, crème de menthe syrup, honey, vanilla bean paste, and a pinch of salt. Stir until fully combined and creamy.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop the mixture into 12 portions (about 2 tablespoons each) and flatten each portion into a disc about ½-inch thick.
  • Place the discs in the freezer for about 1 hour or until fully firm.
  • Melt the dark chocolate using the microwave or double boiler method. Stir until smooth.
  • Remove the frozen discs from the freezer. Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each disc in melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place back onto the parchment paper and sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.
  • Return the coated moose paws to the freezer until the chocolate shell is fully set.
