All I can say, if you love chocolate, peanut butter, yogurt and fruit, you have got to give this recipe a try.

How To Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Yogurt Dip

Using a hand mixer, mix together peanut butter, honey, vanilla and cacao powder until well incorporated.
Add in yogurt and mix until incorporated.
Cut fruit of choice and dip into Yogurt Dip.

Best Honey To Use

Personally, local raw honey is my favorite honey to use. Raw honey is unprocessed and unpasteurized honey that is straight from the beehive. It has a slew of healthy benefits plus it tastes amazing. In addition, when raw honey is purchased locally, eating it can help ease seasonal allergy symptoms for allergy sufferers due to your body becoming less sensitive to the pesky pollen.

Plain Yogurt

Plain Yogurt is a dairy product that has been fermented with healthy bacteria. It also has no additional sweeteners or flavors added to it, thus the plain flavor. Going one step further, plain Greek yogurt is simply plain yogurt that has been strained of some of the whey (liquid part of yogurt and milk), giving it a thicker consistency.

Whether Greek or regular, plain yogurt is the base for many recipes such as Skinny Red Potato Salad, Grilled Chicken Tikka Masala and Tzatziki Sauce.

Sugar Free Fruit Dip

To make this fruit dip recipe completely sugar free follow these steps:

Make sure your peanut butter has no additional sugar added to it.
Choose plain yogurt over flavored yogurt.
Replace the honey with 15-20 drops of this natural sweetener.

Cacao Nibs and Benefits of Eating Them

Very simply, Cacao Nibs are crushed cocoa beans. They are raw, crunchy and have a strong chocolate flavor. Since they are not sweet, it can take a little while to grow accustomed to their taste. However, I ADORE them!! They taste amazing sprinkled on top of yogurt or in recipes like this parfait recipe.

In addition to being highly flavorful, cacao nibs have an impressive profile of nutritional benefits. I absolutely adore that they are high in anti-inflammatory antioxidants that may fight against cancer, help to control blood sugar and help to reduce blood pressure and cholesterol. Not too shabby for an extra little chocolate treat.

Cacao Powder and Where to Buy

As the name implies, Cacao powder is ground, un-roasted cocoa beans. However, there does not seem to be a set industry standard definition of when to call it cacao powder vs cocoa powder. As in many cases these days, it is best to become familiar with the company and their standards for production. This is the brand I use that is also sold at Costco.
