Ingredients
Scale
Strawberry Yogurt Mixture
- 1 1/2 cups strawberries, chopped
- 1 cup unsweetened Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp honey
Chocolate Coating
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare the tray. Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
- Mix ingredients. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, Greek yogurt, and honey until evenly incorporated.
- Form clusters. Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment-lined tray, spacing them evenly so they do not stick together.
- Freeze clusters. Place the tray in the freezer for about 30 minutes to allow the yogurt clusters to firm up and become solid enough to handle.
- Melt chocolate. While the clusters freeze, melt dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Dip clusters. Remove the tray from the freezer. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each frozen yogurt cluster into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely coated with chocolate.
- Place coated clusters. Set the chocolate-coated clusters back on the parchment paper-lined tray carefully to avoid breaking.
- Add toppings (optional). Sprinkle crushed nuts, dried fruit, or coconut flakes on top of each chocolate-covered cluster for extra texture and flavor if desired.
- Freeze again. Return the tray to the freezer for an additional 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely and sets firmly.
- Store clusters. Once fully set, transfer the chocolate strawberry yogurt clusters into an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
- Ensure the yogurt mixture is well chilled before dipping to help the chocolate set quickly.
- Choose high-quality dark chocolate chips with at least 60% cocoa for a rich, less sweet coating.
- Clusters can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt.
- Be gentle when dipping to avoid breaking the frozen clusters.
