Description
Healthy frozen yogurt clusters loaded with strawberries and coated in dark chocolate. These protein-rich treats combine creamy Greek yogurt with freeze-dried strawberries and a crunchy chocolate shell for a guilt-free snack that tastes like dessert.
Ingredients
2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed into small pieces
Pinch of salt
10 ounces dark chocolate (60-70% cacao), chopped
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Optional: 2 tablespoons mini dark chocolate chips
Optional: 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Optional: Crushed freeze-dried strawberries for garnish
Instructions
1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
2. Crush freeze-dried strawberries into small pieces using a rolling pin or food processor.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
4. Gently fold in crushed freeze-dried strawberries until evenly distributed.
5. Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, drop dollops of yogurt mixture onto prepared baking sheet, spacing 1 inch apart (should make 24-28 clusters).
6. Gently flatten each dollop to about ½-inch thickness using the back of a spoon.
7. Freeze for 2-3 hours until completely solid and hard.
8. Chop dark chocolate and combine with coconut oil in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler) or microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth.
9. Working with 6-8 frozen clusters at a time, use a fork to dip each cluster into melted chocolate, coating completely.
10. Tap fork on bowl edge to remove excess chocolate, then place on a second parchment-lined baking sheet.
11. Optional: Immediately sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried strawberries before chocolate sets.
12. Return coated clusters to freezer for at least 1 hour until chocolate is fully hardened.
13. Transfer to airtight container, separating layers with parchment paper.
14. Store in freezer for up to 3 months.
Notes
Work quickly when coating clusters—yogurt softens at room temperature within 2-3 minutes.
Only remove 6-8 clusters from freezer at a time while coating with chocolate.
Let chocolate cool to 90-95°F before dipping for best results.
For dairy-free version, use thick coconut or cashew yogurt and dairy-free chocolate.
Fresh strawberries can replace freeze-dried, but dice very small and pat completely dry first.
Clusters are meant to be eaten frozen—let sit 2-3 minutes at room temperature for softer texture if desired.
Double-coat for extra-thick chocolate shell that’s less prone to cracking.
