Ingredients
Scale
Frozen Yogurt Mixture
- 2 cups fresh diced strawberries
- 1 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
Chocolate Coating
- 12 ounces dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- Sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Frozen Yogurt Bites: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh diced strawberries and strawberry Greek yogurt until you have a creamy mixture. Using a spoon, drop small clusters of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Freeze Yogurt Bites: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the clusters freeze for about 30 minutes, or until they are solid and firm to the touch.
- Melt Chocolate: While the frozen bites are setting, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. To ensure smooth melting, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted. If using, add the teaspoon of coconut oil to the chocolate to create a glossy finish and enhance texture.
- Coat Bites with Chocolate: Remove the frozen yogurt bites from the freezer. Quickly dip each frozen bite into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on each bite immediately after dipping to elevate the flavor.
- Set and Enjoy: Allow the chocolate coating to harden at room temperature for a few minutes or place the baking sheet back in the freezer to speed up hardening. Once set, the chocolate covered strawberry frozen yogurt bites are ready to be enjoyed as a refreshing, delicious treat.
Notes
- Use full-fat or low-fat Greek yogurt based on preference.
- Coconut oil in the chocolate helps achieve a glossy finish but can be omitted.
- Store leftover frozen yogurt bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
- For a sweeter option, add honey or maple syrup to the yogurt mixture before freezing.
- Dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa provides a good balance of flavor and antioxidants.
