Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose your favorite flavor or stick with plain)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for sweetness)

1 cup granola (select your preferred blend)

1/2 cup mixed nuts (chop up almonds, walnuts, and pecans)

1/2 cup dried fruits (such as chopped raisins, cranberries, and apricots)

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks (for a sweet surprise)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (to enhance flavor)

Optional: Fresh fruit pieces (like berries or banana slices) for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract. Using a whisk or spatula, mix thoroughly until the mixture is creamy and well-blended.

    Combine Trail Ingredients: Gently fold in the granola, chopped nuts, dried fruits, and dark chocolate chips into the yogurt mixture. Take care to mix without crushing the granola too much, ensuring each ingredient is evenly distributed throughout.

      Form the Bombs: Using a tablespoon or a small ice cream scoop, carefully drop generous spoonfuls of the mixture into silicone molds or an ice cube tray. For added color and flavor, gently press a few pieces of fresh fruit into the top of each yogurt bomb.

        Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours or until they are completely solid.

          Unmold and Store: Once the bombs are frozen, carefully pop them out of the molds. Transfer the trail mix bombs into an airtight container and store them in the freezer, where they will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks. They make for a perfect on-the-go snack!

            Serve: When you're ready for a delicious treat, take a few bombs out of the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes for easier biting, or enjoy them straight from the freezer for a refreshing snack.
