how to make Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups chopped strawberries
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the chopped strawberries, plain Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until combined.
  2. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet or large plate to form clusters. You should be able to make about 10 clusters.
  3. Place the baking sheet with the yogurt clusters in the freezer and leave them to freeze until they are solid, around 1-2 hours.
  4. Once the clusters are frozen, melt the chocolate. Put the chocolate chips and coconut oil into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15 or 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth.
  5. Take the frozen yogurt clusters out of the freezer. Carefully dip each one into the melted chocolate using a spoon to make sure they are fully coated.
  6. Place the chocolate-coated clusters back onto the prepared baking sheet. If you want, sprinkle a little sea salt on top.
  7. Put the clusters back in the freezer for a few minutes to let the chocolate harden. Then, enjoy!
