Chocolate Yogurt Parfaits

Chocolate Yogurt Parfaits

These darling little Chocolate Yogurt Parfaits are fun to make for breakfast, snack time, dessert, and also great to serve your guests at holiday parties.

This beautiful chocolate + fresh berry combo is DELICIOUS!

I love the simplicity here!

If you’re serving parfaits for breakfast, consider adding some protein or collagen powder into your yogurt mix, so that your breakfast keeps you satisfied.

I love the “Just Ingredients” brand.

🍫Cacao vs. Cocoa

Although they are both completely interchangeable in recipes, they are each processed differently.

Cacao is the purest form of chocolate. It’s an excellent source of antioxidants and has a high number of flavonoids. Cacao is higher in protein, fiber, magnesium, and iron than its cousin cocoa.

If all you have on hand is cocoa powder, then that’s fine to use.

When you have a choice at the grocery store, reach for the less processed raw cacao to take advantage of its awesome health benefits in all of your homemade treats!

What’s the difference between cocoa and cacao?

🍯 The sweetness factor is such a PERSONAL preference, so please consider this when adding in the honey, or maple syrup.

Depending on your taste preference, you may want a bit more or less.

IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A STORE-BOUGHT BRAND OF GRANOLA TO MAKE THIS EVEN EASIER, I LIKE “PURELY ELIZABETH, CHOCOLATE SEA SALT, ANCIENT GRAIN GRANOLA WITH PROBIOTICS”.

Remember that granola tends to be high in (healthy) calories, fat, and sugar.

We don’t count them at CFC, but granola is a special treat and a small sprinkle on top of our yogurt goes a long way in adding that satisfying crunch factor!

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened coconut yogurt

  • 2 Tbsps unsweetened cacao or cocoa powder

To assemble your cups, divide your chocolate yogurt mixture equally among 4 cups.
