Yogurt-chocolate pretzel pops (from Isabel Minunni) 

Too Good To Be Healthy
Kyle Michael Miller / Today


Ingredients: 
1 cup dark chocolate chips, divided
14 pretzel rods
3 cups plain, unsweetened yogurt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup honey

Directions:
With a double oven, melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Coat one end, halfway up, of each pretzel with melted chocolate. Place on foil or parchment paper to harden.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, thoroughly mix yogurt, vanilla, honey, and remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips. 

Scoop yogurt mixture into 14 desired pop molds. Place in the freezer for about 30 minutes. Place a pretzel in each mold, with the chocolate-coated side into pop, and place back in the freezer to completely freeze — about 6 hours. 

Place ice pop mold’s tips in warm water to remove yogurt pops. Serve and enjoy!
