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, for sprinkling)
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Freeze Yogurt Bites: Place the baking sheet with the yogurt clusters into the freezer and let them freeze solid for approximately 30 minutes.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
