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 to keep the yogurt bites from sticking.
- Mix Yogurt and Strawberries: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries and the strawberry Greek yogurt until you have a creamy, fruity yogurt mixture.
- Form Yogurt Bites: Use a spoon or an ice cream scoop to drop the yogurt mixture into small bite-sized clusters (about 2 inches each) onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. This should yield about 8 bites.
- Freeze Yogurt Bites: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the yogurt bites freeze solid for 30 minutes to ensure they hold their shape during dipping.
- Melt Chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool at room temperature for 3 to 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Dip Yogurt Bites: Remove the frozen bites from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each yogurt bite completely into the melted chocolate, then transfer it back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt if desired.
- Set Chocolate: Allow the chocolate coating to harden for a few minutes at room temperature or place the baking sheet back in the freezer briefly. Enjoy the frozen yogurt bites immediately or store as desired.
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries for the best texture and flavor in the yogurt bites.
- An ice cream scoop helps create evenly sized yogurt bites for uniform freezing and dipping.
- Make sure the bites are completely frozen solid before dipping to prevent melting.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- For longer storage, freeze the bites placed between layers of parchment paper in a freezer-safe container for up to one month.
