Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites Recipe

Introduction

These Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are a refreshing and indulgent treat perfect for warm days. Combining juicy strawberries, creamy Greek yogurt, and rich dark chocolate, they offer a delightful balance of flavors that’s easy to make at home.

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh diced strawberries
• 1 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
• 12 ounces dark chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
• Sea salt (optional)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
2. Step 2: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries with the Greek yogurt to create a creamy, fruity mixture.
3. Step 3: Drop the yogurt mixture into small bites or clusters onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. You should get about 8 bites that are approximately 2 inches each.
4. Step 4: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the bites until firm, about 30 minutes.
5. Step 5: Once frozen, melt the dark chocolate chips (with coconut oil if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Let the melted chocolate rest at room temperature for 3-5 minutes.
6. Step 6: Dip each frozen yogurt bite completely into the melted chocolate using a fork, then return them to the baking sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
7. Step 7: Allow the chocolate to harden for a few minutes before enjoying your frozen treats.

Tips & Variations

• Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier bites.
• Swap strawberries with raspberries or blueberries for a different fruity flavor.
• Adding a pinch of sea salt enhances the chocolate flavor and balances the sweetness.
• If you don’t have coconut oil, you can melt the chocolate without it; just be careful not to overheat.

Storage

Store the frozen yogurt bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week. When ready to eat, let them sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes to soften slightly before enjoying. Avoid thawing completely to keep their texture intact.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I make these bites without chocolate?

Yes, you can enjoy the strawberry and yogurt mixture frozen on its own or drizzle melted chocolate on top instead of dipping.

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Greek yogurt works best for firmness and creaminess, but you can use regular yogurt if you don’t mind a softer texture. Strain it through a cheesecloth to remove excess liquid for better results.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

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, for sprinkling)

Instructions

1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to prevent sticking and facilitate easy removal of the frozen yogurt bites.
2. Mix Yogurt and Strawberries: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries with the strawberry Greek yogurt thoroughly until a creamy, fruity mixture forms.
3. Form Yogurt Bites: Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the lined baking sheet in small 2-inch clusters, spacing them out to prevent sticking together. This should yield about 8 bites.
4. Freeze Yogurt Bites: Place the baking sheet with the yogurt clusters into the freezer and let them freeze solid for approximately 30 minutes.
5. Melt Chocolate: Transfer the dark chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl, add the optional coconut oil to assist with smooth melting, then microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval until fully melted. Allow the melted chocolate to rest at room temperature for 3-5 minutes before dipping.
6. Dip Frozen Yogurt Bites in Chocolate: Remove the frozen yogurt bites from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each bite completely into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating, then place each chocolate-covered bite back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
7. Add Sea Salt and Set: Optionally sprinkle a pinch of sea salt atop each chocolate-coated bite to enhance flavor. Let the bites sit at room temperature for a few minutes until the chocolate hardens, then enjoy your delicious frozen treats!

Notes

• For a dairy-free version, substitute the Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
• Use high-quality dark chocolate for best flavor and smooth texture.
• The coconut oil helps create a glossy chocolate coating and makes dipping easier but can be omitted if desired.
• Store finished bites in an airtight container in the freezer to keep them firm.
• Adjust the size of the yogurt bites to your preference; smaller sizes will freeze quicker.
