Description
These Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are an easy, healthy, and refreshing snack or dessert. Made with Greek yogurt, fresh strawberries, and a chocolate drizzle, they are simple to prepare and a family favorite, perfect for a quick treat, light breakfast, or make-ahead option.
Ingredients
2 cups Greek Yogurt (plain, full-fat)
1 cup Strawberries (Fresh, diced small)
3 tablespoons Maple Syrup or Honey
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
1 teaspoon Coconut Oil (optional)
Parchment Paper
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents sticking for your yogurt clusters
- In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Stir everything well until perfectly smooth
- Gently fold in the diced fresh strawberries. Ensure the strawberries are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture for consistent strawberry yogurt clusters
- Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Aim for clusters roughly 2-3 inches in diameter. Don't worry about perfection; rustic Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are charming
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer. Freeze for at least 1-2 hours, or until the frozen clusters are solid
- While the yogurt clusters freeze, melt the chocolate chips. You can use a microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth, or a double boiler. Add coconut oil if you want a thinner drizzle for your chocolate yogurt clusters
- Once the Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are firm, remove them from the freezer. Drizzle generously with the melted chocolate
- Return the baking sheet to the freezer for another 15-20 minutes, allowing the chocolate to set completely. Then, enjoy your homemade Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters!
Notes
Always use full-fat Greek yogurt; it yields a creamier, less icy texture in your yogurt clusters.
Chop your strawberries into small, uniform pieces for even distribution and easier eating.
For the chocolate drizzle, a ziploc bag with a tiny corner snipped off makes a fantastic piping bag, giving you neat lines on your strawberry yogurt clusters.
Freeze the clusters thoroughly before drizzling the chocolate; this helps the chocolate set quickly and prevents melting the yogurt.
Don't overcrowd your baking sheet; give each cluster space to freeze properly.
Store these frozen clusters in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn.
These delightful Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are best enjoyed directly from the freezer. They will keep well in the freezer for up to 2-3 weeks.
