Step 1: Gather the Ingredients
Before you start, make sure you have the following ingredients ready:
- 4 eggs
- 310 g (about 1 ¼ cups) of sugar-free yogurt (Greek or Skyr)
- 400 g (about 2 ¼ cups) of dark chocolate (at least 72% cocoa, sugar-free or low-sugar)
Practical Tips
- Use a kitchen scale for precise measurement, especially for the chocolate and yogurt.
- Ensure that the yogurt is plain and sugar-free to keep the recipe healthy.
Step 2: Prepare the Chocolate
- Melt the Dark Chocolate
- Break the dark chocolate into small pieces to help it melt evenly.
- Use a microwave or double boiler:
- Microwave: Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.
- Double Boiler: Place a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring until melted.
Common Pitfalls
- Avoid overheating the chocolate as it can burn. Stir frequently and monitor closely.
Step 3: Mix the Ingredients
-
Combine Eggs and Yogurt
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 4 eggs and 310 g of yogurt until well combined.
-
Incorporate the Melted Chocolate
- Gradually add the melted chocolate to the egg and yogurt mixture, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Practical Tips
- Make sure the chocolate is not too hot before adding it to prevent cooking the eggs.
Step 4: Pour and Set
-
Prepare the Baking Dish
- Line a baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal. A 9x9 inch dish works well.
-
Pour the Mixture
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly.
-
Chill to Set
- Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the mixture is firm.
Step 5: Cut and Store
-
Slice the Chocolate Bars
- Once set, remove the chocolate slab from the dish and cut it into bar-sized pieces.
-
Store Properly
- Keep the bars in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for longer shelf life.
Real-World Applications
- These bars make a great on-the-go snack or a post-workout treat. You can also customize them by adding nuts, seeds, or peanut butter for added flavor and texture.
