Ingredients
Scale
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 Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside for easy removal of the yogurt bites.
- Mix Yogurt and Strawberries: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced fresh strawberries with the strawberry Greek yogurt, mixing until you get a creamy, fruity yogurt mixture.
- Form Bites: Drop the yogurt mixture by spoonfuls into small 2-inch sized bites or clusters onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out carefully. This should yield about 8 bites.
- Freeze Yogurt Bites: Transfer the baking sheet with the bites into the freezer and freeze until solid, approximately 30 minutes.
- Melt Chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips and optional coconut oil into a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Let the melted chocolate sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes.
- Dip Bites in Chocolate: Remove the frozen yogurt bites from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each bite completely into the melted chocolate coating, then return it to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
- Set Chocolate: Allow the chocolate coating to harden by letting the bites sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your frozen yogurt bites immediately or store them for later!
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
- An ice cream scoop or small spoon helps to portion uniform yogurt bites.
- Ensure the yogurt bites are fully frozen before dipping to keep their shape.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze in a container separated by parchment paper for up to one month.
- Optional coconut oil in the chocolate helps achieve a smoother melt and shinier finish.
