Gather These Ingredients:
For Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites, you’ll gather a few pantry favorites plus a couple of secret stars that make these little frozen gems taste like the real deal.

- 2 cups Greek yogurt (full-fat or whole milk for creaminess) – This is the creamy base that keeps your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites rich and tangy.
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar – Adds that signature caramel warmth reminiscent of cookie dough.
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract – Brings out that classic vanilla flavor so essential in cookie dough flavored yogurt treats.
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips – The tiny bursts of chocolate are my favorite touch in these frozen yogurt bite snacks.
- 1 tablespoon almond flour or oat flour – For that lightly nutty texture that feels like cookie crumbs.
- Pinch of sea salt – Balances the sweetness and rounds out the flavor beautifully.
Want to switch things up in your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites? Try using maple syrup instead of sugar or swap the mini chips for chopped pecans for a nutty twist. For a dairy-free version, coconut yogurt works surprisingly well here—it’s creamier than you’d expect.
Look for almond or oat flour in the baking aisle or health foods section—it’s the little flour that keeps your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites light but still satisfyingly chewy. I always reach for a quality pure vanilla extract because, trust me, it makes all the difference in my cookie dough flavored yogurt treats.
If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought vanilla Greek yogurt and just stir in the extras—you’ll save a ton of mixing steps and still get that cookie dough vibe going strong. Using mini chips over larger chunks helps keep each bite neat and snackable.
The key to this Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites recipe? Fresh ingredients and a good yogurt base that’s thick enough to hold shape but soft enough to melt deliciously on your tongue. I prefer full-fat yogurt for that creamy dreamy texture, but low-fat works if you want it lighter.
Let’s Make This Happen!
Ready to whip up these Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites? This recipe takes about 20 minutes of hands-on time plus a few hours to freeze, so perfect for planning ahead.
- Start by mixing your Greek yogurt, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Stir well until the sugar dissolves and you get a creamy, smooth base. This step is where the magic happens in your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites—don’t rush the blending or you’ll miss a silky texture.
- Next, fold in the almond or oat flour and a pinch of salt. Keep stirring but don’t overwork it—you want a thick, cookie dough-like batter that’s soft but holds together nicely. The flour adds that subtle chewiness, just like the real cookie dough.
- Gently stir in your mini chocolate chips last. This way, they stay intact and don’t melt into the mixture. While your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites is chilling in the freezer, these chips are the little bursts of joy waiting for you.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use silicone molds if you have them—it helps your bites pop out easily. Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, drop dollops of the mixture onto your tray. Aim for bite-sized portions so these no-bake frozen yogurt snacks feel just right in your mouth.
- Freeze for at least 3 hours or overnight for best results. You’ll know your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites are ready when they’re firm to the touch but still creamy inside. If they’re too icy after freezing, give them a couple of minutes to soften before diving in.
- When you’re ready to enjoy, simply pop a few bite snacks straight from the freezer. They stay fresh in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks, making them perfect for quick frozen yogurt bite snacks anytime.
If your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites seems a little too firm once frozen, just let them sit out 2-3 minutes before serving. Trust me, that few-minute thaw turns them into creamy little clouds of cookie dough goodness.
Recipe tip: If you want to make a double batch and freeze some as backups, you can halve the portion in each mold so they’re extra snackable. The texture holds up beautifully, and you’ll have ready-to-go treats for busy days.
Don’t skip stirring the vanilla carefully through that yogurt base; it’s the flavor anchor that seals the deal. This process makes your frozen yogurt bite snacks sing with every bite.
Serving Ideas & Pairings!
These Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites are super versatile dessert snacks that shine on their own, but I have a few favorite ways to serve them that turn snack time into a mini celebration.
My top pairing? Fresh berries like raspberries or sliced strawberries on the side—this adds a juicy pop that contrasts the creamy bites perfectly. It’s like a little summer party in your mouth with every forkful.
If you want to stretch them into a more filling snack, a small bowl of granola or toasted coconut makes a great crunchy companion. This way, your Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites feel like a complete treat with texture and bite.
I love serving these bite snacks during weekend brunch or as a healthy frozen dessert bites choice after dinner. They’re light but rich, perfect for those moments when you want dessert without feeling weighed down.
For a playful twist on presentation, try stacking a few bites on a pretty plate and drizzle with a bit of honey or maple syrup. It adds a shiny glaze that looks impressive but takes seconds.
If you end up with leftover Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt Bites from a party, try melting them slightly and spreading on your morning toast with a sprinkle of cinnamon. It’s like cookie dough toast magic without the guilt.
Seasonally, these bites work just as well in winter with warm spices like cinnamon or nutmeg stirred into the mix. That holiday vibe gives these healthy frozen dessert bites a cozy hug.
