Chocolate-Dipped Strawberry Yogurt Clusters, Easy Freezer Treat
These chocolate-dipped strawberry yogurt clusters are cool, fruity freezer bites with a snappy chocolate shell and a creamy, tangy center.
Equipment
- Rimmed baking sheet
- Parchment paper or silicone mat
- Medium mixing bowl
- Heatproof bowl
- Microwave or double boiler
- Fork
- Spoon
- Airtight container
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups ripe strawberries finely diced (hulled; about 8–10 medium)
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt 2% or whole milk for best texture
- 1-2 tbsp honey or maple syrup to taste
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract optional
- 1 cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips or chopped bar chocolate
- 2 tsp refined coconut oil
- flaky sea salt optional garnish
- finely chopped nuts optional garnish
- toasted coconut optional garnish
Instructions
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and clear a flat, level spot in the freezer.
- Rinse the strawberries quickly, pat very dry, hull, and dice to about 5 mm (1/4 inch) to reduce excess moisture.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla (if using), then fold in the diced strawberries just until coated.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture per cluster onto the prepared tray (10–12 mounds), flatten slightly, and freeze until solid, about 45–90 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate with the coconut oil in a heatproof bowl (microwave in short bursts, stirring, or use a double boiler) until smooth, fluid, and glossy.
- Set up for dipping with a fork and spoon, keeping the chocolate warm so it stays thin and easy to coat.
- Working with a few clusters at a time, dip each frozen cluster into the chocolate (or spoon chocolate over), let excess drip off, and place back on the tray; sprinkle with salt, nuts, or coconut if desired.
- Freeze again for 10–20 minutes until the chocolate shells are hard, then transfer to an airtight container with parchment between layers and store in the freezer.
